Report: Norwich City to target Crystal Palace's Dwight Gayle in January

Norwich City have reportedly targeted another move for Crystal Palace striker Dwight Gayle when the transfer window re-opens in January.

The Canaries failed in their bid to sign the former Peterborough United man over the summer as Palace were reportedly reluctant to sell a second striker after Bournemouth grabbed Glenn Murray.

Gayle, 25, has only scored in one of his nine appearances this season, but that was a hat-trick in the League Cup win over Charlton Athletic.

He is currently out injured with a hamstring injury and might not play for Palace before the turn of the year, when Norwich will reignite their interest in the striker, according to the Evening Standard.
