Norwich City are reportedly interested in signing £5m-rated Championship ace Sam Byram this January.

The newly-promoted Premier League side, who defeated Southampton 1-0 at the weekend to move six points clear of the relegation zone, are thought to be considering using Northern Ireland international Kyle Lafferty as a makeweight in a part-exchange offer for the Leeds United right-back this month.

The 22-year-old, who has been with the Elland Road outfit since he was 12-years-old, has scored three goals in 21 league games for the Championship club this season.

With Whites boss Steve Evans keen on signing striker Lafferty from the Canaries this month; Norwich boss Alex Neil hopes he can tempt Leeds into agreeing a part-exchange transfer involving £5m-rated Byram for the Northern Irishman, especially as the likes of Everton, Newcastle United and Sunderland have also been linked with moves for the highly-rated defender.

    Bad swap,Byram worth at least 10 million, Lafferty probably 3 million, considering as a full back, Byram has scored more goals in the league than Lafferty recently. A better swap would be Johnny Howson.
    Unfortunately yet again a leeds owner has pound signs in his eyes, so do not be shocked to see Byram, Cooke, Taylor,Antenucci and Bellusci all exit. God forbid we build ourselves a youthful side with a fighting chance.
