Norwich City are seeking to sign a defensive midfielder skilled in possession before the transfer deadline, and Vancouver's 24-year-old American midfielder Sebastian Berhalter is a player known to the club. The interest in Berhalter, as well as Mainz's Lennard Maloney, stems from a previous focus on recruiting players with defensive midfield profiles. Norwich have also considered other players for the position, including Glen Kamara of Rennes. Berhalter, who has 9 caps and one goal for the USA, joined Vancouver in February 2022 and has a contract until the end of 2026. His market value is currently €5.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
