Reports have surfaced today in the EDP that Norwich City have been scouting West Ham's Andy Irving in their quest for midfield reinforcements following Mirko Topic's season ending injury

Irving fits the profile of this central midfield role as the Canaries aim to add to ease the load on first choice duo Kenny McLean and Pelle Mattsson.

The 25-year-old left footer has only played seven minutes of Premier League football for the Hammers since late October, and is now in the final six months of his current deal.

Irving, who was an unused substitute for West Ham's FA Cup extra-time win over QPR on Sunday, is believed to be attracting interest from Championship rivals, and clubs abroad after a previous spell in Austria.
