Norwich City are interested in Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson and Liverpool custodian Danny Ward, according to Sky Sports (Transfer Live blog, 13:28, Friday, June 1, 2018).

Danny Ward better option?

Henderson is a very talented and promising young goalkeeper, but Ward would be the better option for Norwich.

The 24-year-old knows the Championship inside out, having helped Huddersfield Town to promotion to the Premier League at the end of the 2016-17 campaign, and the Welshman is also more mature and experienced as a footballer than Henderson.
