Norwich have confirmed this evening that defender Ryan Bennett is the subject of an internal investigation relating to alleged remarks made on Twitter.

In a statement on their official website, the Canaries said that they were waiting for further communication from the Football Association regarding any possible charge for the 23-year-old.

The FA made no comment tonight, while the England Under-21 international's Twitter page has been shut down.

Bennett, who moved to Norfolk from Peterborough United last year, scored City's opening goal in their 2-1 win over Reading on Saturday.
