Twitter reacts to Marley Watkins signing

Norwich City officially announced the signing of Marley Watkins from Barnsley on a three-year deal on Thursday morning.

The Canaries have confirmed that Watkins will become a Norwich player when his contract expires at the end of the month.

Watkins scored ten goals and set-up nine for Barnsley last season in the Championship, which made him hot property coming into the summer.

Norwich moved quickly and have secured his signature, but what do the fans think of the deal?

Here is how fans reacted to the news on Twitter:
