Harry Kane has named James Maddison as his funniest England teammate and the striker remarked that the Tottenham man would do extremely well at ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’.
Maddison has quickly won over the Tottenham fan base, not just because of his on-pitch performances but also because of the authenticity in the way he speaks to the media.
The 26-year-old has also evidently become quite popular in the Tottenham changing room, which is perhaps a testament to his infectious personality.
Ange Postescoglou was quick to notice the attacking midfielder’s leadership skills, naming him as one of his two vice-captains even though the former Leicester man only arrived at Spurs this summer.
Unfortunately, Tottenham fans never got to see how Maddison would link up with Kane but that is a partnership that England supporters would want to see a lot of in next summer’s European championship.

James Maddison is a good player to have in the camp
By the sounds of it, the pair get along quite well with each other, with the Bayern striker describing the midfielder as ‘cheeky’.
When asked who the biggest prankster was at Bayern and England, the striker told ESPN: “At Bayern, I’d probably say Serge Gnabry, he’s welcomed me in the best way possible with a few pranks here and there. He’s a really good guy, has a few jokes in him, and then probably someone like Madders, yeah, I’d probably put Madders in there he’s a bit cheeky like that yeah.”
When asked which teammates he would like to see on I’m a Celebrity, Kane said: “James Maddison, I think he’d be good value, I think he could (win) actually, he has a great personality.”
Spurs Web Opinion
Similarly to Ange, Maddison also comes across as quite emotionally intelligent and it is not difficult to see why the midfielder and the Tottenham head coach get along quite well.
