Ben Godrey: Everton agree deal to sign Norwich City defender



AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen were also interested in Godfrey; Norwich rejected a £26m offer for the 22-year-old earlier this week


Norwich have accepted the Toffees' latest bid after previously rejecting a £26m offer for the 22-year-old which consisted of £20m up front, with a further £6m in add-ons.


Everton appear to have opted for Godfrey ahead of Carlo Ancelotti's first choice, a loan move for Chelsea's Fikayo Tomori, which now looks unlikely with Frank Lampard wanting extra cover in central defence due to the current absence of Antonio Rudiger.


Godfrey made 30 top flight appearances for Norwich as Daniel Farke's side were relegated to the Sky Bet Championship last season, but impressed nonetheless along with Max Aarons and Jamal Lewis in defence for the Canaries.


The England U21 international, who made his Young Lions debut last year and started both European U21 Championship qualifiers earlier in September, has featured three times for Norwich so far in the Championship this season. german keno


AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen expressed interest in the defender, who Norwich were valuing at around £30m, earlier in the summer transfer window.
