Cureton wants Canaries return

Colchester United striker Jamie Cureton wants the chance to return to Norwich City.

Last season's top scorer in the Championship has asked to quit Colchester, although his request has been turned down.

Hull City have expressed an interest in the forward, but Cureton would prefer to rejoin his first club.

He left Norwich for Bristol Rovers over a decade ago and feels he has unfinished business at Carrow Road.

"If Norwich are interested I would obviously be keen to talk to them definitely," Cureton told the Pink'un.

"It's all down to Colchester and Norwich, and whether or not they can do business.

"I have always said Norwich would be my preference because it is where I started as a kid and I owe them a lot, and at the same time I probably did not do myself justice in the first team.

"If the opportunity comes up I would be very interested. It is a club that is close to my heart and being a big club in the division is an added bonus."

Cureton is also hoping that Colchester will set a realistic fee for his transfer after he moved to Layer Road for nothing from Swindon Town.

He added: "I think £750,000 is too much. If they got £500,000 I think they would have done very, very well.

"I went to Colchester on a free transfer and I think the club is in a position where they ought to come down on the fee.

"We shall see what that is. I just hope the fee is not outrageous and a club can put a bid in and we can take it from there."
