Naismith set for Norwich move

Everton forward Steven Naismith is set to sign for Norwich City for £8m, reports The Guardian.

It is thought that Norwich have agreed on an £8m deal with fellow Premier League side Everton for the experienced Scottish forward. Norwich were interested in Naismith during the summer window but a move never materialised, with him staying at the Toffees.

Everton boss Roberto Martinez told Naismith that he was too important to let go of in the summer but in the last six months his stance has changed, with the forward dropping down the pecking order at Everton.

Norwich are set to pounce on this by bringing the Scottish international to the club to bolster their attacking options. Naismith can play out wide and behind the striker, which can give good competition for places as well as good Premier League experience in the side.

Other Premier League sides are thought to be interested in Naismith but with a deal agreed, it looks as though Alex Neil has beaten them to the punch.
