Journalist: Norwich have agreed deal to sign €11m target who was in scintillating form last season – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Norwich City have reached an agreement to sign PAOK winger Christos Tzolis, according to journalist Giannis Chorianopoulos.
The Sportstime newspaper journalist has claimed that the Canaries have agreed a deal in the region of €11m for Tzolis.
The 19-year-old is a highly-rated winger and Norwich have been targeting to sign him throughout the summer.
The newly-promoted Premier League club needed to sign a winger following the departure of Emiliano Buendia who joined Aston Villa this summer.
Chorianopoulos claims that the youngster will sign a five-year deal at Carrow Road. His contract will also have a 17% sell-on clause.

Norwich have shown ambition in the transfer market so far as they look to stay on in the Premier League this time around.
The Canaries have signed as many as eight new players this summer, and it seems Tzolis could be their next addition.
The youngster enjoyed a spectacular campaign in 2020-21, registering 16 goals and 10 assists from 46 appearances across all competitions.
They have bolstered their attacking ranks this summer with the purchase of winger Milot Rashica from Werder Bremen for around £9 million.
Tzolis could be a potential replacement for Todd Cantwell who has been linked with a move to Aston Villa this summer.
Cantwell is being fancied to head for the exit door after he declined to extend his contract expiring in June 2022.
Max Aarons is another player who has been frequently linked with a move to top Premier League clubs, but Norwich are yet to receive a concrete offer for him this summer.
