News round-up; Vaughan, Mustafi and Lundstram

A few snippets of new for you all this afternoon, starting with some developments on the James Vaughan front. Yesterday I brought you the story that James Vaughan was a target for newly-promoted Norwich City, with the fee was rumoured to be in the region of £750,000. Today, however, the muted price has more than tripled, with Sky Sports reporting that Paul Lambert is prepared to offer £2.5 million. Norwich chairman Steve Parish said "it is going to be difficult for us to compete with top-flight clubs", and it looks as if the injury-prone youngster is on his way to Carrow Road.

Next, ToffeeTalk revealed on their Twitter page that young defender Shkodran Mustafi has been called up to the Germany U-19 squad to face Hungary in a European Championship Qualifying game. He seems an exciting prospect for club and country and he's at the best place to have a positive career.

Finally, I would like to share an article from FourFourTwo about teenage midfielder John Lundstram. The Talent Spotter has penned an article describing Lundstram as 'powerful, aggressive and all-action', with an 'impressive range of passing'. Take a look, and keep an eye on Lundstram - another exciting prospect from the academy conveyor belt.
