Norwich City join Blackburn Rovers in race for Reading FC star.
On Boxing Day, the Royals hosted Northampton Town, and Darren Witcoop stated that scouts were present to see the New Zealand international.
The Berkshire outfit won 4-1 that day, with goals from Harvey Knibbs, Sam Smith, Charlie Savage, and Mamadi Camara securing all three points for Noel Hunt’s side.
However, with cash flow concerns expected to arise and a takeover not yet in the works, many League One fans are concerned about a potential fire sale of players during the approaching winter window.
Bindon, who is only 19 years old, has been one of the first names on the Royals’ teamsheet since the early parts of the 2023/24 season.
Making a seamless adjustment to English football, his efforts have helped the Royals reduce the number of goals conceded while also impressing rival clubs.

His contract at the Select Car Leasing Stadium expires at the end of the 2024/25 season, and given the level of interest in him, he appears to be a strong candidate to leave Berkshire during the upcoming transfer window.
Norwich City is among the teams watching Tyler Bindon.
According to Witcoop, scouts from Norwich and Blackburn visited the SCL Stadium on Boxing Day to observe Bindon in preparation for a potential January transfer.
According to the same journalist, the player is expected to depart Berkshire during the transfer season, with other clubs interested in signing him.
FLW reports that Coventry City, Hull City, and Watford are interested in signing the center-back, who is expected to leave if the Royals’ cash flow situation does not improve in the coming weeks.
