"Josh sent me a message [on Saturday] evening saying he would not be available because of transfer things in his head. 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."
"Josh sent me a text yesterday [Saturday] evening, because he was normally in the selection, that he was not available for this game. But I don't want to make too much attention around that because the guys who were here, they deserve the praise for the performance they did, what they are doing during training sessions and in the games they play, so I want to focus on that."
Josh Sargent informed the club he would be unavailable for the FA Cup third-round match because he had transfer matters on his mind. The club made clear that Sargent will not be leaving during the current transfer window and indicated his unavailability will carry consequences. The club plans internal discussions later in the week to determine next steps. Sargent is not injured. Sargent joined Norwich in August 2021 from Werder Bremen and has scored 56 goals in 157 appearances. Jovon Makama scored a hat-trick in the cup win and has become Norwich's top scorer with 12 goals.
