Norwich City want Patrick Bamford

Norwich City are interested in wrapping up a permanent deal for Chelsea striker Patrick Bamford.

The 22-year-old returned to the Blues earlier this month following an unsuccessful loan stint with Crystal Palace.

Recent speculation had claimed that the young striker may seek another temporary move away from Stamford Bridge, but according to The Mirror, the Canaries are eager to seal a permanent contract for the player's services.

Swansea City and Bournemouth are also said to be interested in the young marksman.

Bamford's current deal at Chelsea is due to expire in the summer of 2018.
