TOTTENHAM have submitted a joint £50million bid for Leicester stars James Maddison and Harvey Barnes.
Spurs have been linked with both Foxes forwards following the East Midland outfit’s relegation to the Championship.

And SunSport understands they have now made a formal offer of £50m in an attempt to snap up the pair.
But the offer is around £70M less than what Leicester valued the players at 12 months ago.
Least summer, they were thought to be asking for around £60m for each of Maddison and Barnes.
However, they are aware relegation means they may well have to take a cut-price.
Maddison, 26, who is also receiving interest from Newcastle, has just one year left on his contract so Leicester need to sell to avoid him leaving on a free.
He is on international duty ahead of England‘s Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia.
Barnes, 25, has a deal that keeps him at the King Power Stadium until 2025, but he is still expected to leave before the new season gets underway.
Aston Villa and West Ham are both monitoring his situation.

Maddison contributed 10 goals and nine assists in 32 games for Leicester this season, while Barnes registered 13 goals and three assists.
Their imminent departures come as Enzo Maresca is being tipped to become the Foxes’ new head coach.
Maresca, 43, is one of Pep Guardiola‘s coaches at Manchester City.
He is believed to have impressed Leicester chiefs during the interview process – which also saw the 2016 Premier League champions talk to outgoing boss Dean Smith, Steven Gerrard, Scott Parker and Graham Potter.
