Danish international and Borussia Dortmund’s defensive midfielder Thomas Delaney is being tipped for a Premier League move, but reports Norwich City have expressed interest are wide of the mark.

Sky Sports Germany claimed on Monday evening the top flight new boys, Crystal Palace and Southampton could be potential destinations if the £13m-rated Delaney leaves Dortmund.

City currently have other central midfield targets as they look to bolster Daniel Farke’s squad.

Norwich remain in the market for a defensive midfield addition, however, despite Chelsea youngster Billy Gilmour poised to complete his season long loan move this week.

Tottenham prospect Olly Skipp is another City want to entice back to Carrow Road but the injured Kenny McLean and Lukas Rupp are Farke’s only established senior options in a key area of the field for the Premier League return. Jacob Sorensen was brought in 12 months ago, but had an extended run at full back after injury to Xavi Quintilla.

Delaney has started every game in Denmark’s run to the Euro2020 quarter-finals - including the 4-0 rout of Wales at the weekend – but is reportedly approaching the final 12 months of his Dortmund deal.

The 29-year-old made 20 Bundesliga appearances last season and also featured in the Champions League quarter-final aggregate defeat to Manchester City.

The report in Germany claims no firm proposals will be made until after Delaney's Euros campaign is over.

Norwich have so far completed deals for fellow Bundesliga export Milot Rashica from Werder Bremen and plotted Angus Gunn’s return from Southampton.

Farke’s current squad, minus their Euro2020 contingent, will return for pre-season testing next week.
