USMNT forward Josh Sargent reportedly in talks with Wolfsburg over transfer from Norwich City
Canaries manager Liam Manning told BBC Radio Norfolk on Monday that it’s no surprise to him that Sargent is being linked with top clubs, but that as things stand, no deal is over the line and he’s a Norwich player until that changes.
“He’s top, you see that, you see what he’s done in the division, but the consequence of that is naturally he’s going to be linked with clubs at a higher level,” he said. “We’ll have to see how that pans out, but I can’t speak highly enough of how he’s applied himself in training and how he’s gone about it.”
If the deal gets over the line, Sargent will become Wolfsburg’s second addition from the English Championship this window, following Sheffield United’s Vinicius Souza.
Internationally, Sargent will be looking to improve his stock with the national team by securing a top-flight transfer this summer ahead of the FIFA World Cup next year.
