Norwich City are facing a significant injury blow after Canadian winger Ali Ahmed suffered an ACL injury in a pre-season match. The 25-year-old is set to miss the entirety of the campaign. With wide options a concern for the Canaries, they are now eyeing Largie Ramazani as a potential replacement.
What happened to Largie Ramazani?
Largie Ramazani, 25, came through the youth system at Manchester United and made one senior appearance for the Red Devils before switching to Spanish side Almeria in 2020. He scored 22 and assisted seven in 128 games across all competitions, prompting Leeds United to part ways with around €11.7 million (£10 million) for his services in the summer of 2024.
Why it matters for Norwich City
The Canaries have struggled with wide options over the past few years when it comes to injuries. With Largie Ramazani's potential arrival, they could be looking to strengthen their squad. Ramazani has struggled to force his way into Daniel Farke's plans, making just 31 appearances in two years for Leeds United.
What comes next?
Leeds United are likely to sanction Ramazani's departure for a reasonable fee. With the Canaries in need of a replacement for injured winger Ali Ahmed, they could be in the hunt for the Belgian winger. Ramazani has the potential to replicate his form in the Championship, scoring six and assisting twice in 783 minutes of football for Leeds United.
