Sargent has now scored eight goals in his last eight games for Norwich, as the American forward is in blitzing form in the Championship.
This March, he's expected to be a contender to lead the lines for the U.S. men's national team in the CONCACAF Nations League Finals. The 24-year-old was selected to the 60-man preliminary roster, and is the most senior forward available due to injuries to Ricardo Pepi and Folarin Balogun at the moment.
