Marc Arnold, the Director of Football of 2. Bundesliga side Eintracht Braunschweig, has confirmed that Norwich City have made an offer to sign forward Onel Hernandez from his club.
As reported in Braunschweig’s local outlet Braunschweiger-Zeitung, Arnold said:
Norwich City has made an offer for Onel Hernandez. We are now dealing with the terms under which we would agree to a transfer.
The 24-year-old only joined Braunschweig in 2016 but his displays have seemingly impressed Norwich, who are expected to pay around £1.7m to acquire him.
He’s scored one goal and has two assists in 17 league games so far this season, and he’lll be looking to improve on those numbers if the transfer to Carrow Road is completed.
Hernandez can play on either flank or in a central role and will provide Daniel Farke with an option to use in any of those roles as he looks to build a squad capable of making a late push to end the season in the playoffs.
