Marcus Maddison

Maddison signed a six-month loan deal with Hull City on 31 January 2020. He made his debut for Hull on 1 February 2020, when he came on as a substitute for Mallik Wilks in the 1–5 home defeat to Brentford. He scored his first goal for the club on 14 February 2020 when he scored Hull's second goal in a 4–4 draw against Swansea City.

In June 2019, he was linked with a transfer to Hull City, to join up with former Peterborough manager Grant McCann and defender Ryan Tafazolli.

He scored 12 goals and made 22 assists in all competitions during the 2017–18 season. In April 2018 he was nominated for the EFL League One Player of the Season award, alongside teammate Jack Marriott. On 30 April, Maddison won the Peterborough United Goal Of The Season Award. On 10 May 2018, Maddison was placed on the transfer list by owner Darragh MacAnthony, who as part of an agreement said that as part of Maddison's new contract in 2017, if Peterborough United failed to get promotion he would allow him to leave.

He had a contract option exercised by Peterborough United at the end of the 2018–19 season.

In October 2014, Maddison won the Football League Young Player of the month after scoring 4 goals in 5 games. He was given a red card in a 1–0 victory against Leyton Orient in a 1–0 victory on 7 March 2015. In his first season at the club he scored 8 goals in 30 games in all competitions. On 31 August 2017, Maddison signed a new three-year deal at Peterborough United.

After scoring 4 goals in his first 5 games of the 2014/15 season for Gateshead, he was signed by Peterborough United in August 2014 for an undisclosed fee, signing a four-year contract; manager Darren Ferguson said that "he has good balance, skill, pace and we feel this could be a good signing". The fee was a club-record for Gateshead (reported as £250,000 with the potential to rise to £500,000), and manager Gary Mills said "he was a good player but could be selfish at times".

Maddison is also a freekick specialist. In 2014, he described his unusual freekick technique: "Everyone asks how I do it. You use the side of your foot, but you're hitting it more with your heel. If you hit with the middle of the side of your foot it just curls. If you hit it the way I do, it goes straight and moves at the same time." His style of play has also been compared to playmaker Mesut Ozil.

He began his career at Newcastle United, but did not play a senior game for the club. He was attached to Blyth Spartans and St Johnstone, before scoring 13 Conference Premier goals for Gateshead in a 12-month period from August 2013. He was signed by Peterborough United for an undisclosed fee in August 2014. In 2014, he was also capped by England C.

Maddison began his career at Newcastle United. He was loaned out to Blyth Spartans in November 2012 to gain experience, where he scored once in two appearances. He was released by Newcastle in 2013, with Reserve team manager Willie Donachie saying he had "a lot to learn". He went on to join St Johnstone on 8 March 2013.

After failing to make an appearance at St Johnstone he signed with Conference Premier club Gateshead in August 2013 following a successful trial. He was named as Conference Premier Player of the Month in January 2014. He saw a reignition to his career and scored 13 league goals for Gateshead in 34 league appearances.
