Leeds United is on the verge of making a move for Norwich City standout Jonathan Rowe, as reported by The Telegraph. Talks have reportedly begun between the two clubs regarding the talented winger, who had an impressive season at Carrow Road in 2023/24.
Rowe’s performances were instrumental in Norwich’s top-six finish last season, attracting attention from clubs like Wolves, Aston Villa, and Crystal Palace. Leeds United now appears to be in the mix, ready to offer £7m for the player.
Although this may seem like a bold move, Leeds could have the necessary resources following Crysencio Summerville’s departure to West Ham for over £25m. However, Norwich may hold out for a higher fee given Rowe’s potential and contract situation.
With just one year left on his contract, Norwich may view this summer as the perfect opportunity to sell Rowe. The club has shown a willingness to cash in on players in the past, as seen with previous sales like Gabriel Sara and Max Aarons.
If Leeds can secure a deal for Rowe, he could potentially play a key role in Daniel Farke’s plans for the upcoming season. With his talent and potential, it would be wise for Leeds to ensure he gets regular game time, potentially slotting into a 4-2-3-1 system or adapting to a new formation under Farke.
