Chuba Akpom to join Norwich City on loan

Arsenal youngster Chuba Akpom is poised to join Championship side Norwich City on loan for the remainder of the campaign.

The England Under-20 international is believed to have attracted interest from a host of Championship clubs in recent weeks.

However, The Mirror claims that the Canaries have succeeded in securing the services of the 19-year-old on a temporary basis.

The signing of Akpom could prove vital in the club's chase for automatic promotion from the English second tier at the end of the season.

Akpom has made seven appearances for Arsenal this season.
