US international Josh Sargent refused to play in FA Cup game, says Norwich coach
NORWICH, England (AP) --- Norwich head coach Philippe Clement says U.S.
international Josh Sargent refused to play in Sunday's FA Cup match against
Walsall.
Clement also insisted that Sargent would not be leaving the second-tier club in
the January transfer window, despite reported interest from MLS team Toronto FC.
"Josh sent me a message (on Saturday) evening saying he would not be available
because of transfer things in his head," Clement said after Norwich's 5-1 rout
of Walsall. "This is obviously not something we want, and will have
consequences. It is something we need to speak about inside the club, but the
club has made it really clear to Josh and his agent that he will not be leaving
during this transfer window."
The 25-year-old forward joined Norwich from Werder Bremen in 2021. He has eight
goals this season.
Norwich easily advanced to the fourth round with Jovon Makama scoring a hat
trick against Walsall.
