Premier League strugglers Norwich edging closer to signing Sunderland 18-year-old full back Bali Mumba in £500,000 deal

Norwich City are closing on a £500,000 deal for Sunderland teenage defender Bali Mumba.

The 18-year old full back has already broken into Sunderland's first team and the fee is expected to rise with bonuses.

Norwich are currently preparing to resume their Premier League campaign but have been dealt a big blow after one of their players tested positive for coronavirus.

The Premier League have announced two positive cases of coronavirus among 1,200 players and staff in their latest round of testing ahead of the top-flight's restart next Wednesday.
