Norwich City suspended Lewis Grabban

Norwich City have suspended their 27-year old English striker Lewis Grabban after failing to attend Norwich City's League Cup match with Rotherham United despite having been named as a substitute. He has now been told not to report to training on Thursday.

Lewis Grabban, who joined The Canaries during 2014 season has been targeted by his previous club AFC Bournemouth which has already issued three bids for the striker while Norwich have not yet accepted the offer.

Canaries boss Alex Neil said,

"As far as I am concerned, Lewis Grabban is a Norwich player. Bottom line, that is it.

"Every player has got a price, but they have to meet a valuation we think the player is at, not what they think the player is valued at.

"There won't be any shedding of light. Any sort of thing that happens behind closed doors stays there and that has always been the case and that will remain the case.

"I don't have any issues with any player. He might have an issue but I'll quickly fix it. Regardless of what happens or what rumours are flying about or what others might say or do, that will have absolutely no bearing on what happens with Lewis Grabban or any player at this club. "
