Norwich City make their move for Fábio Carvalho
$23.6M on the table at Brentford. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.
Market10 Aug 2026
Liam Gibbs says no to Burton Albion
“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Liam Gibbs had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.
Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
Norwich City bid $1.1M for Hákon Rafn Valdimarsson
The offer went to Brentford this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.
Boardroom10 Aug 2026
Norwich City go back to the board over Fábio Carvalho
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $25.4M — a club that wants Fábio Carvalho enough to be asked twice.

Pelle Mattsson signs a new deal
“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Pelle Mattsson commits to Norwich City for another 4 years.
Transfer targets10 Aug 2026
Norwich City rebuffed over Veljko Milosavljević
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Bournemouth have kept their man, and Norwich City go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Exeter City watching Anis Ben Slimane
The interest is real enough to have reached print. Norwich City have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Mathias Kvistgaarden in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Norwich City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
The dugout10 Aug 2026
Pelle Mattsson knocks on the manager's door
“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Norwich City, and both men came out saying it was fine.
