Norwich City have confirmed Kieran Dowell will leave the club this summer, clearing a path for the playmaker to join Rangers.
The Ibrox side are deep in talks with the former Everton star and are set to make him their first summer signing on a three-year deal. It comes after Todd Cantwell made the same move in January with Dowell the latest building part of Michael Beale's ongoing squad revamp.
He's out of contract at Norwich in June and the English Championship side have confirmed he will leave the club when his deal expires, along with defender Sam Byram and veteran Northern Ireland keeper Michael McGovern. A club statement reads: "Norwich City can confirm that Sam Byram, Kieran Dowell and Michael McGovern will leave the football club when their respective contracts expire this summer," and on Dowell specifically they added: "Dowell will leave the club having made 75 appearances in all competitions, scoring 12 goals."
Sporting director Stuart Webber added: “I’d like to thank the boys for their contribution to the club over the time they have been with us. Michael has enjoyed two promotions and has been an outstanding professional throughout his time with us.
"Kieran and Sam both enjoyed being in the squad for the record-breaking points tally we have achieved in the Championship in 2021, with Kieran scoring some valuable goals during the run in. We wish all of the players well. They know that they are all, along with their families, welcome back at Carrow Road or the Lotus Training Centre any time.”
