Huddersfield boss Wagner confirms deal close for Norwich attacker Pritchard

Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner admits they're close to signing Norwich City midfielder Alex Pritchard.

Wagner is hopeful of completing a £12million move for Pritchard ahead of the weekend.

Wagner confirmed a fee has been agreed for Norwich City midfielder Pritchard, with the Terriers manager confident the player will be signed up ahead of Saturday's match with West Ham.

Pritchard will become Huddersfield's second signing of the January transfer window following the arrival of Terence Kongolo from Monaco, and Wagner is not ruling out further moves.

“I can confirm that the two clubs have found a solution. Now it is all about the personal terms and I am confident it will be done in the next 24 hours," Wagner said.

“The window is still open and we still have our eye on the market. I am happy with what we have done so far with Kongolo and hopefully we can add Alex to the squad. Is this the last one? Maybe. Maybe not."
