Tottenham midfielder James Maddison posted a heartfelt message on Instagram after arriving in South Korea with the squad. Spurs face Newcastle in Seoul on August 3.
James Maddison has shared a message of appreciation to Tottenham fans, as the squad landed in Seoul ahead of their next pre-season clash.
The midfielder took to Instagram to thank supporters after a busy stretch of games that included a 1-0 win over Arsenal— the first North London derby ever played overseas.

Maddison posted a photo from the team’s arrival in Seoul with the caption:
“Touch down in Seoul. Forever grateful for the support.”
The 27-year-old has looked sharp during Spurs’ pre-season tour so far, and appears eager to impress new head coach Thomas Frank, who replaced Ange Postecoglou earlier this summer.
Maddison Aiming to Impress New Boss
While Maddison’s role became uncertain under Postecoglou — with reports of a fall-out late last season — he still delivered a solid campaign.
Now under Frank, who has already overseen the signings of Mohammed Kudus and Mathys Tel, Maddison is expected to play a key creative role in midfield.
