Report: Norwich's Redmond to undergo Southampton medical

Reuters

It appears Norwich City midfielder Nathan Redmond will remain in England's top flight as he edges toward completing a move to Southampton.

Redmond will undergo a medical at Southampton's training facility Saturday ahead of a transfer that will reportedly see Norwich receive £11 million in return, sources revealed to Sky Sports.

The report suggests Southampton is eager to sign Redmond because of Sadio Mane's uncertain future at the club, with reports linking him with a move to Liverpool. The 24-year-old will reportedly join the Merseyside outfit in a transfer that's expected to cost Liverpool roughly £30 million.

Since joining Norwich from Birmingham City in 2013, Redmond has appeared in 122 matches, including 34 appearances during the 2015-16 campaign.

However, his efforts - scoring six goals and providing three assists - weren't enough to ensure Premier League survival as Norwich gets set to play in the Championship next season.
