Norwich are set to renew their interest in Crystal Palace striker Dwight Gayle during the January transfer window, according to reports.

The Canaries were heavily linked with a move for the 25-year-old during the summer, and launched a £11m bid in an attempt to land his signature.

Alan Pardew was keen to keep hold of Gayle, however, particularly as fellow forward Glenn Murray left the club to join Bournemouth.

However, Norwich remain interested in the former Peterborough star and hope a deal can be completed this winter, report the Evening Standard.

Gayle has failed to net a Premier League goal so far this season and is set for a period on the treatment table after missing Palace’s victory at Liverpool with a hamstring injury.
