£40m Tottenham player now ranked as the second best signing in the Premier League this season
Tottenham Hotspur star James Maddison has been ranked as the second best signing in the Premier League so far this season.
That’s according to , with the football statistics site naming the midfielder in their best new signing XI in the Premier League.
James Maddison has made a huge impact at Spurs after joining for a fee from Leicester City over the summer.
The 26-year-old quickly established himself as a key man in Ange Postecoglou’s side, racking up eight goal involvements in 11 league appearances.
Of course, Tottenham have been dealt a huge blow as Maddison picked up an ankle injury in the 4-1 defeat to Chelsea last week.
The England international is expected to be out until the new year and Spurs certainly felt his absence over the weekend as they suffered a 2-1 defeat at Wolves.
Despite missing out on the trip to Molineux on Saturday, Maddison has been ranked as the second-best signing of the summer so far.
Maddison ranked among best signings in the Premier League
WhoScored have released a best new signing XI for the Premier League and based on the statistics alone, only Jeremy Doku has outperformed Maddison.
The Manchester City winger boasts an average rating of 7.59 for the season so far, with Maddison just behind with a 7.58 rating.
Tottenham shot-stopper Guglielmo Vicario also features in the best XI and was handed a 6.97 rating.
Micky van de Ven surprisingly missed out after an exceptional start to the season, with Nottingham Forest’s Murillo and Brentford’s Nathan Collins making the side.
It’s certainly no real surprise to see Maddison ranked among the best signings in the Premier League this season.
The playmaker was in exceptional form before picking up an injury and his absence until 2024 is a huge blow for Spurs.
Postecoglou will have to find a way to get Spurs purring in the final third once again after a disappointing display at Wolves.
