Norwich City closing in on Sunderland youngster?

Sunderland youngster Bali Mumba is reportedly closing in on a switch to Norwich City.

Despite still being four months short of his 19th birthday, Mumba has already made five starts and five substitute outings for the first team in all competitions.

However, the emergence of the teenager has naturally led to interest in his signature, including from Norwich who are currently looking to avoid relegation from the Premier League.

According to the Daily Mail, the Canaries are willing to spend £500,000 on the prospect during the next window.

With Mumba having just over 12 months left on his contract, Sunderland may be forced to accept the offer for one of their academy graduates.
