Norwich City Key Player Fit to Face Swansea

Sargent hasn’t played in any of the last two weeks’ USA internationals. The 24-year-old saw no action as the USNMT drew 1-1 with New Zealand and lost 2-1 to Canada. Journalist Doug McIntyre first claimed that the striker’s ankle injury occurred while playing for the national team.

Johannes Hoff Thorup, nevertheless, has allayed any worries in advance of Norwich’s trip to Swansea this coming weekend. Sargent will be available as the Norfolk team gets ready for their trip to South Wales, according to the head coach of the Canaries, as reported by the Pink Un. Thorup stated during the pre-game press conference on Thursday that Sargent would be included in the matchday squad as well as the squad for training.

In the past ten months, Sargent has made a name for himself at Carrow Road. The US national was out for the first three months of the 2023–24 Championship season due to an ankle injury, but he bounced back nicely. Sargent scored 16 goals and provided two assists in just 26 games the previous season, according to Transfermarkt.

Sargent has maintained his strong form into the upcoming Championship season. In the 2024–25 season, the former Werder Bremen player has contributed to three of Norwich’s four league goals. In the 2-2 home draw against Blackburn, he contributed a goal and an assist. Whoscored found that Sargent scored once again as the Canaries held Sheffield United to a 1-1 draw.
