Chelsea youngster Jake Clarke-Salter set for a season-long loan move to Championship outfit Norwich City
NORWICH are in talks over a loan move for Chelsea youngster Jake Clarke-Salter.
The defender, 19, has been targeted by Daniel Farke as he looks to put together a squad for the Championship next season.

Antonio Conte has taken the youngster on tour to the Far East where the Premier League champions play Inter Milan and Bayern Munich next week.
But he will allow the teenager to go out on loan for experience before returning to the club in a year.
Clarke-Salter spent 2016-17 away on loan, as he turned out 12 times in League One for Bristol Rovers, scoring a single goal – in an injury-hit campaign.
The teenager – who has one Premier League appearance under his belt for Chelsea, against Stoke in March 2016 – has racked up three caps for the England Under-20s.
Clarke-Salter joined Chelsea back in 2006 and – with the exception of a youth single season at Sutton United – has been a member of the Blues ever since.

Canaries boss Farke will be hoping the young Chelsea star can help get the Yellows back into the big-time.
Norwich struggled to eighth place in the Championship last season, with just 20 wins from their 46 games, as they finished ten points adrift of the play-offs.
They finished last season without a permanent manager as Alex Neil had his contract terminated in March.
