Norwich are set to miss out on the signing of Hull forward Jarrod Bowen as Leicester close in on a deal.
According to The Mirror, via HITC, Leicester are on the verge of sealing a deal for Bowen ahead of the January transfer window.
Bowen has scored 15 Championship goals for Hull so far this season and the report claims that they value him at around £10m.

The Canaries have recently been touted with interest in Bowen as they consider potential signings for the next transfer window. However, missing out on Bowen may not be the end of the world.
Emi Buendia and Todd Cantwell have been excellent in the wide areas of late, with Onel Hernandez also in reserve, which means that there is no urgent need to strengthen in that position. In the attacking midfield position is where Norwich should be looking to add to, with Kenny McLean playing a somewhat makeshift role there – due to Marco Stiepermann’s underwhelming form this season.
Daniel Farke and Stuart Webber should be looking to sign a number 10 who can add the physicality that McLean and Stiepermann both offer, but also add more of a threat in terms of goals and assists.
