The 22-year-old arrives for the Canaries’ 2019/20 campaign, where they will be hoping to avoid relegation on their return to the Premier League.
Manchester City loaned Angus Gunn to Norwich during the 2017/18 season and appear to have been impressed with Daniel Farke’s management, as the Premier League champions have temporarily sent another of their youngsters to Carrow Road.
Roberts spent the duration of last season on loan in La Liga with Girona and played a key role for Celtic for two and a half seasons before.
Norwich already have Onel Hernandez and Emi Buendia as their starting options on the flanks, but it seems further depth has been targeted and the Manchester City prospect will hope to make an impression at the club.
