Dortmund and Leipzig told to cough up £50m transfer fee by Norwich for England U21 star Godfrey with Arsenal also keen
BORUSSIA DORTMUND and RB Leipzig have been told to cough up £50million for Ben Godfrey by Norwich City.
As exclusively revealed by SunSport, the German big boys are both keen to bring the England Under-21 centre-back to the Bundesliga.
Despite the Canaries looking almost certain to be relegated from the Premier League, the club are adamant their 22-year-old ace will not be leaving on the cheap.
They believe he will soon become a fully-fledged member of Gareth Southgate senior England squad and are demanding the hefty £50m from interested parties, report .
However, it is believed that Dortmund and Leipzig only value Godfrey at HALF that price.
The defender featured in Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat at Watford, his 29th of the season so far, but was unable to stop his side sliding further towards the trap door.
That left Norwich ten points from safety with just four matches remaining.
But with Godfrey under contract until 2023, they are determined to get top price for the ex-York City ace.
