Links to Burnley, Leeds and Sunderland also became public, but Sargent opted to remain at Carrow Road as he seeks a strong goal-scoring season leading into the World Cup.

Speaking for the first time on a dizzying summer, the 25-year-old admits he was forced into making decisions over the summer with the focus being on his family as well as his football.

"There [was] interest from multiple clubs," Sargent told Prowire Soccer. "Obviously in the end it didn't work out, but that's football sometimes.

"There's quite a few things going on. A lot of decisions had to be made, not just for myself, but for my family overall. I think I'm in a good spot at Norwich. I'm at a place where I know I can score goals, which of course is important going into the World Cup.

"I've had a good start to the season, so hopefully I can continue that form all throughout the season and keep scoring goals."

Sargent has made his return to Mauricio Pochettino's USA squad after being omitted from their Gold Cup squad earlier this summer.

he City striker has been prolific at club level but is without a goal on the international stage since 2019. He is hoping that drought ends in friendly games against Japan and South Korea over the upcoming international break.

"I'd probably be lying if I said I didn't think about it," Sargent said.

"Of course, I know it's been a while. I'm doing so well at the club level at the moment. I just keep reminding myself how well I'm doing there.

"I know I can score goals, and I know it's a matter of time that I'm going to score for the national team. I'm just going to put my head down and keep working hard. And I know the goals will come."
