Norwich are considering a January swoop for Hull City winger Jarrod Bowen as they look to bolster their squad.
According to FLW, via The Pink’Un, Norwich and Newcastle are both interested in a deal to sign the forward, who has been in impressive form this season.
The report claims that Newcastle are the favourites at present, with Norwich keeping tabs on the 22-year-old.
READ NORWICH VERDICT
Norwich have been abysmal in the Premier League this season, there is no shying away from that. The Canaries are 19th in the league and have lost 12 of their 17 games in all competitions this season and are currently four points adrift of safety.
Bowen has scored 14 goals in the Championship so far, after bagging 22 last term, and would represent more of a goal threat than some of Norwich’s current forwards. Kenny McLean has scored one goal so far, whilst Marco Stiepermann and Emi Buendia are still searching for their maiden Premier League strikes.
The biggest question is whether or not Norwich would be able to afford Bowen, after spending just £750k on permanent signings over the summer – all going on Sam Byram. Stuart Webber will have to pull out a miracle in January if Norwich are to avoid the drop.
