Abu Kamara slaps in Norwich City transfer request amid interest from several clubs.

Several clubs including Celtic, Southampton, Leicester City, Stoke City, Portsmouth and Hull City are reportedly monitoring Norwich City winger Abu Kamara this window.

The 21-year-old scored and assisted for the Canaries against Stevenage in the EFL Cup last week. Last season, he was a key player for Portsmouth as they won promotion to the Sky Bet Championship, scoring ten goals and providing 11 assists in 52 appearances.

According to BBC Sport journalist Alex Howell, the England Under-20 international may be on the move after submitting a transfer request, as shown below via his official X account.

Along with Celtic, who were named as suitors earlier in the transfer window, several Championship clubs are now vying for his signature.

Moving parts can quickly change the story of transfer interest, so keep in mind that Celtic’s interest in Kamara may no longer be valid.

Nonetheless, he would provide a dynamic option on the right flank for any team that gets his signature. The youngster, can play off either flank but predominantly operated on the right at Fratton Park.

Pompey want Kamara back and have spent the summer waiting for Norwich to decide what to do, but Kamara has taken the first step towards securing his long-term future, which appears to be away from East Anglia, by officially requesting to leave in order to expedite a transfer.

Norwich, who are reluctant to part with the flying winger because Jonathan Rowe has refused to play for the club ahead of a potential move to Marseille, are thought to want around £2 million for Kamara if they are to consider a sale, with the player out of contract next summer, though the Canaries do have a 12-month option.

Adding another winger is a key priority for Hull City before next Friday night’s deadline, and have an eye on a number of potential targets including Eintracht Frankfurt’s German wingman Faride Alidou.

According to Fotmob, Kamara created 43 chances and completed 57 successful dribbles during his last season of league duty. He also had 196 touches in the opposition penalty area, demonstrating his ability to threaten their backlines.
