United States men’s national team forward Josh Sargent is on the verge of joining Bundesliga side Wolfsburg for a deal worth in excess of €21 million ($24.4m), a source has told ESPN.
Sargent, 25, has excelled at Norwich City but is set for a return to Germany. He joined Norwich from Werder Bremen in 2021 and has since scored 46 goals in 124 league matches for the Championship side.
He was there in Norwich’s 2021-22 season in the Premier League and has spent the past three campaigns in England’s second tier, where he was top scorer for Norwich in both the 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons.
