Norwich City are reported to be considering a bid to sign Kasey Palmer from Coventry City ahead of Friday’s transfer deadline.
The Canaries are interested in Palmer, having identified the attacking midfielder as a potential target at the back end of the summer window, according to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano. Posting on X, formerly Twitter, he added that Norwich are “tempted to test Coventry with a bid this week”.
Palmer joined the Sky Blues from Bristol City for an undisclosed fee last summer. He signed a three-year contract, so has two years of that left to run. He played under Norwich boss David Wagner during a couple of loan spells at Huddersfield Town.
To date, Palmer has made 36 appearances for Mark Robins’ side, scoring four goals. Having helped Coventry reach the Championship play-off final last season, he has started three of the team’s four league fixtures so far this term, most recently the goalless draw with Sunderland on Saturday.
While the Sky Blues are mid-table after taking five points from a possible 12, Norwich are second behind leaders Leicester City, on 10 points. Wagner’s team have made an unbeaten start in the Championship, with three wins and a draw. They claimed an eye-catching 4-0 win away to Huddersfield on Saturday.
