Norwich City handed boost in their pursuit of Gustavo Mosquito

Having initially been linked with a move for the attacker last month, an update has now emerged regarding the future of the Norwich target

Norwich City have been handed a boost in their pursuit of Gustavo Mosquito as the attacker is now set to be available on a free transfer.

According to Brazilian outlet UOL Esporte, Mosquito has not been offered a new deal by Corinthians and thus will leave the club when his current contract expires at the end of the year.

Any potential suitor for the winger will now be able to negotiate a pre-contract with him.

Mosquito has not featured for Corinthians since October 2022 due to an issue with his knee.

The 25-year-old is understood to be making progress in terms of his road to recovery from injury.

Norwich could potentially face competition in this particular pursuit as an unnamed Brazilian outfit are believed to be keen on a move for Mosquito.
