Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou expressed no concerns over midfielder James Maddison attending the World Darts Championship even while recovering from illness. Maddison, who was not fit enough to start against Wolves, appeared at the event with teammate Brennan Johnson. Postecoglou emphasized the importance of maintaining a balance between a player’s professional and personal life, stating that as long as Maddison is not bedridden, he can enjoy outside activities. This season, Maddison has excelled with eight goals and five assists in 26 matches.
