Football Gossip This Morning

Not much in the papers this morning that I can see, but the following on good old Football Rumours...

"Leeds fan, I can tell you for certain that Dion Dublin isn't joining your lot, he's just signed a new one year deal at Norwich with a coaching role to follow, so forget that one.

As well as hoping to finalise the signing of Czech international striker Davida Střihavku from Banik Ostrava next week, the Canaries are also ready to complete moves for Dundee defender Paul Dixon, Hull City midfielder Dean Marney and Celtic defender Adam Virgo.

Norwich departures will see Youssef Saffri join West Bromwich, Andy Hughes will go to Leeds United (once they can sign players again), Gary Doherty to Hull City and Ryan Jarvis to Scunthorpe.

Norwich boss Peter Grant is also hoping to seal a one season long loan deal for Chelsea youngster Ryan Bertrand who had been on loan to Bournemouth. Mourinho now wants to see the youngster play at a higher level. Chelsea are believed to be "keeping tabs" on another youngster, Norwich's Chris Martin whilst they monitor Bertrands form for the Canaries–it is thought that Chelsea have already had a cheeky bid for the Norwich starlet turned down by Peter Grant.
