News about Jonathan Rowe

Marseille are closing in on a deal to sign Norwich City winger Jonathan Rowe.  The Ligue 1 side are keen to spread the cost of the move and are offering a loan with obligation to buy next summer for £13.5m. Rowe, who has also been linked with a move to Leeds, made 32 appearances for the Canaries last season, netting 12 goals.

SIMON JONES: Despite being out for ten weeks with a hamstring injury, Aston Villa striker Jhon Duran remains a target for Chelsea. Unai Emery's side was open to bids for the 20-year-old center forward if the club finds a replacement, according to Mail Sport, although Villa had a third bid of £7.5 million for Middlesbrough forward Morgan Rogers turned down earlier this January. Unai Emery, a manager in Norwich City, has also expressed disappointment in Jonathan Rowe, with Unai Emery saying that he was hoping that the deal would be finished before the deadline was posted on Wednesday.

SIMON JONES: Jurgen Klopp's pending departure, as well as sports director Jorg Schmadtke, has sparked a never ending discussion about how Liverpool will recover. One of the most common comments around Anfield is that it would be a good idea to tempt the club's former sports director Michael Edwards back to a new role. Edwards left Liverpool just over a year ago and was regarded as the brains behind Liverpool's impressive recruiting process. He's since founded Ludonautics, alongside Liverpool's former director of research Ian Graham, who is now working with a Premier League club and forming a Bolton Wanderers partnership last week.

SIMON JONES: Aston Villa have updated the progress of Norwich City winger Jonathan Rowe as they consider late moves in the window. It comes as Unai Emery's side remains in talks over Morgan Rogers' transfer to Middlesbrough. Middlesbrough turned down a second bid for the promising 21-year-old earlier this week.

This was far from impressive and far from convincing by Norwich, but David Wagner is unlikely to worry. The under fire Canaries boss was booed by the Carrow Road crowd after his team was defeated by Bristol Rovers in the FA Cup last weekend, their fourth winless game in a miserable festive season. Wagner has become more used to receiving questions about his future, but this achievement, which has brought Norwich to the brink of the play-off positions, brings hope. Jonathan Rowe's superb individual goal made it a gritty display in which several players walked a disciplined tightrope, but Jonathan Rowe's superb individual effort illuminated it.

Simon Jones of Mail Sport gives us a detailed rundown of who players each of the Premier League clubs should expect to bring in this January. So many actors could be on their way out during next month's transfer window as well as the actresses who may be on their way out.

NATHAN SALT at PORTMAN ROAD: To put into perspective how long Ipswich fans have waited to see their side win the Old Farm derby, boss Kieran McKenna was playing time as a 22-year-old at Tottenham and Norwich City's Jonathan Rowe, who scored twice here in a 2-2 draw, was five years old. The Tractor Boys have not been in charge of judging this one since 2009, and the wait - Norwich are now unbeaten in their last 13 games - before returning to Carrow Road in April. McKenna is on a collision course two years ago. Since being a part of a team reborn and starting middling in League One and then boosting them to where they are now, second in the Championship and dreaming of the Premier League, he is the architect of a club reborn.

The TV chef, who is a huge Canaries fan, was seen arriving in a grey BMW before the 12.30pm kickoff. But the entrance was overshadowed when a yob hurled the can of Carlsberg beer at her car. For the first time in four years, other Ipswich supporters were seen crowding the car with blue flares.

TARA ANSON-WALSH at CARROW ROAD: The atmosphere at a famous Norwich City fans' drinking hole was subdued today, but not because it was 10 o'clock on a cold and overcast Sunday morning. As one Norwich fan told Mail Sport, some early morning pints to 'numb the pain' appeared to be the order of the day for those wearing yellow and green at The Queen of Iceni, a stone's throw away from Carrow Road. The Canaries went into the match against Blackburn with just one win in their last eight league matches; nine if you include Fulham's knockout of the EFL Cup in the third round. They own the most goals against in the Championship, but they haven't won at home in over a month.

SAMI MOKBEL: Following Jon Rowe's goalscoring debut for England Under-21s on Thursday night, Norwich faces a challenge to keep their rising youngster. Rowe has scored seven goals in 13 games for the Canaries so far this season, and he's quickly establishing a reputation as one of the top-flight's most exciting young talents. Since coming off the bench to make his bow for England U21s, the 20-year-old added to his growing notoriety by scoring within minutes of his debut against Serbia in a 9-1 victory.

Quansah's dramatic comeback victory over Newcastle at St James' Park in August featured a commanding comeo as a replacement. Together with on-loan Hull City midfielder Jaden Philogene and Norwich City winger Jonathan Rowe, the defender is expected to make his European debut for Lee Carsley's European champions. In Euro qualifiers next week, Carsley's side will meet Serbia at the City Ground before facing Ukraine in Slovakia.

LEWIS STEELE: Earlier this year, Leicester, the former champions of the FA Cup, arrived in Gillingham for a cold January lunchtime. That day, Kent's only Football League club welcomed a full house, and although the Foxes may have mistook them for VIP guests, another celebrity attraction was added. Brad Galinson, a Florida-based real estate mogul, did a lap of the stadium with his wife and sons right before the players took the field at Priestfield for the 27th years of turbulent stewardship under Paul Scally.
