The Canaries ace is reportedly a £10m target for the Premier League side.
Norwich City defender Ben Godfrey has been linked with a move to Premier League high-flyers Manchester United, according to reports.
The 21-year-old, who can also play in midfield, has been a key player for Daniel Farke’s Championship table toppers since breaking into the Canaries first team earlier this season.
Godfrey has been impressive at the back and has also racked up three goals and two assists in his 23 Championship matches so far, highlighting his credentials at both ends of the pitch (Transfermarkt).
Indeed, the defender’s form earned him a call up to the England Under-20s team for the Under 20 Elite Fixtures, his debut coming last week in a 3-1 defeat to Poland at St. George’s Park.
According to The Sun, Man United scouts watched the £10million-rated player in action against Rotherham last weekend, his goal salvaged three points for the Canaries in a 2-1 win.
The report goes on to state that the Old Trafford hierarchy thinks Godfrey fits the bill as a young centre-back who is comfortable on the ball.
