Transfer Rumour: Norwich Interested In Forest's Joe Worrall

Norwich City have outed Nottingham Forest’s Joe Worrall as a potential summer recruit ahead of their Premier League return.
Worrall, 24, was linked with Norwich City back in the Janaury of 2020. Eastern Daily Press credited Norwich with an interest in the Nottingham Forest man, who’s since been strongly linked with Burnley.

But Forest would receive no bids for the Englishman. Now though, The Sun on Sunday (25.04.21, pg. 59) credit Norwich with a fresh interest in the Forest defender ahead of their return to the top flight.

Norwich City clinched promotion earlier in the month but are still playing for the Championship title.

Daniel Farke is said to have a short shopping list going into the summer months, but a central defender is thought to be on that list.

In the summer ahead of this season, Celtic and Bournemouth were linked with Worrall and at the time, reports handed him a £12million price tag.

There’s been no reports to suggest whether that price has changed after this season, but it’s a good benchmark for the Canaries to work from ahead of a potential bid.

Worrall having featured in all 46 of his side’s Championship games last season has been limited to 29 this time round.

Small injuries have kept him out in patches but he’s started and completed Forest’s last six Championship outings now, and given their end to the season he could be one of a number of players who might look for a summer exit.

Transfer Rumour: Villa Have Eyes On Todd Cantwell

Aston Villa are considering a move for Norwich City attacking midfielder Todd Cantwell when the summer transfer window reopens, a report from The Daily Mail has claimed.

Cantwell has scored six goals and provided four assists in 31 league appearances for the Canaries this season, helping them win promotion back to the Premier League from the Championship at the first time of asking.

Now it seems as though that is starting to attract attention from some of those clubs already in the top-flight of English football.

According to this latest report, Aston Villa are considering a move for Cantwell this summer, as a possible replacement for Jack Grealish.

According to this latest report, Aston Villa are considering a move for Cantwell this summer, as a possible replacement for Jack Grealish.

It is thought that the Midlands club are bracing themselves for a bid from Manchester City for Grealish, and know they will need to replace the England international if he moves on.

Villa are said to be considering Cantwell as a potential target to fill that role, and it has been suggested that Norwich could be willing to let the 23-year-old leave for a fee of around £30million.

A graduate of Norwich’s academy, Cantwell made his 100th senior appearance for the club in their 3-1 win at QPR on Saturday afternoon.

As things stand, there is just over a year remaining on Cantwell’s contract with Norwich, securing his future at Carrow Road until the end of next season.
