Norwich sit 22nd in the table five games in to Daniel Farke's reign as manager

Norwich are weighing up a bid for Bristol City centre back Aden Flint to bolster Daniel Farke’s defence.

Farke has seen his side concede four goals in each of their last two Championship games to Aston Villa and Millwall and wants to strengthen in that area.

Flint has been subject of much interest this summer and Birmingham had a bid rejected of £5million for the 28-year-old and his team-mate Joe Bryan, with manager Lee Johnson calling the offer ‘derisory’.

Norwich are now considering an approach with Farke keen to improve a defence that has let in 12 goals in five Championship matches to sit 22nd in the table.

The club are operating on a tighter budget than in previous years, with much of this window's transfer business designed to reduce costs, but are aware of the need to spend in central defence.

Norwich may also go back in for Union Berlin’s Toni Leistner, 27, who Farke knows from his time in Germany.
