Norwich City are keen on a late swoop for the youngster between now and the end of the transfer window. They have until the deadline later this evening to seal a deal.
Buck, 19, is being tipped for a bright future in the game and New England Revolution could face a battle to keep hold of him amid interest from Europe. He qualifies to represent England through his father and has played for the Three Lions at both Under-19 and Under-20 levels.
In this latest update regarding his situation by Football Insider, he has emerged on the radar of the Canaries as they eye another acquisition ahead of their clash against Coventry City away this weekend. However, they could face competition for his signature from Premier League new boys Southampton.

The Massachusetts-born man started out at New England FC before linking up with their affiliate club New England Revolution in 2017.
Buck has since risen up through their academy ranks and played for their various youth sides before breaking into their senior set-up.
He is a key player for the MLS outfit these days and has 46 appearances for them in all competitions to date, chipping in with four goals.
The forward is under contract until December 2025 meaning his current team aren’t under any pressure just yet to cash in on him and can wait for the right offer to come for his services.
What now for Norwich City target?
Time will tell whether Norwich City will be able to land him today amid attention from Southampton.
The fact the Saints are also being linked isn’t ideal and the opportunity to play in the top flight may be something that interests him.
He would get more of a chance of playing though in the second tier which he needs to take into account.
The Canaries drew 1-1 at home to Sheffield United last time out and will be eager to pick up a positive result against Coventry City.
