Tottenham midfielder James Maddison has disclosed that the team’s major target is to finish in the top four and not chasing the Premier League title.
Maddison stated this in a chat with TribalFootball, where he said that Tottenham still has the chance of breaking into the title race but that the team’s focus is to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
“I am excited,” said midfielder Maddison. “You want to be involved in the big games and the big moments. It just happens to be that all those three teams at the top we have still got to play. It will be interesting but we have got a job to do.
“People keep asking me about what sort of say we are going to have in the title race. We are not looking at it like that, we have got a job to do. We would never look at what we can do for other teams, we want to finish as high as we can. To do that, we might have to beat some of the teams who are in for the title.
“The Premier League has been brilliant. It has been chaos this year with the three-way title race, the relegation battle, the points deductions, the race for the Champions League. It is set to be a good finale for everyone involved. We have got a job to do at Newcastle on Saturday to try and secure what we want to achieve.”
