Norwich City are in advanced talks to sign Nice midfielder Pierre Lees-Melou.

Nice-Matin says Lees-Melou could complete his transfer to the Premier League new-boys in the next 24 hours.

Norwich will pay €6m to sign the midfielder permanently.

The 28-year-old attacking midfielder joined OGCN from Dijon in 2017 and has a contract with Nice to 2023.

Lees-Melou will arrive at Norwich as a potential replacement for new Aston Villa signing Emi Buendia.
