Godfrey has shone in the Championship with Norwich City but will he get a move to Liverpool, Arsenal or Manchester United?

Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal are hoping to sign Ben Godfrey this summer on the back of his outstanding performances for Norwich City, according to the Sun (26 April, page 54).

Alongside fellow youngsters Max Aarons, Jamal Lewis and Todd Cantwell, 21-year-old Godwell has formed the backbone of the Canaries’ promotion bid with Daniel Farke’s side leading the Championship table with just two games to go.

The England U20 international, who moved to Carrow Road from York City in 2016, helped Shrewsbury Town reach the play-off final during a loan spell in League One last season and he is now one of the first names on Norwich’s team sheet.

And according to the Sun, Premier League giants Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United have been impressed with Godfrey, who is valued at £15 million.

His impressive ball-playing style would stand him in good stead if he made a big move away from Norfolk this summer, though Norwich will be desperate to sell.

The report adds that Ligue 1 giants Lyon have watched Godfrey in his last six games as they too prepare a move for the one-time Middlesbrough youngster.
