Gillingham striker Simeon Jackson is poised to join Championship side Norwich City in the next few days.The Canada international, 23, who has been the Gills' top scorer for the past two seasons, was left out of their pre-season friendly at Dartford on Tuesday.
Manager Andy Hessenthaler told BBC Radio Kent: "Simeon's not here because there has been a development.
"It looks like he's going to go. There will be confirmation by the end of the week I think or maybe before."
He added: "I think it is [Norwich] but I don't know."
BBC Radio Kent understands that part of the deal could involve a swap involving Norwich's Cody McDonald - who used to play for Dartford - but that has not been confirmed by Gillingham.
Team-mate Josh Gowling said everyone wished the striker well on Tuesday when he revealed he had got his longed-for move.
"He's a good friend of mine," said Gowling.
"He came in during pre-season and was a great pro even though there were discussions about him going.
"He obviously didn't play in the friendlies but he put his effort into every training session and I'm glad he's got his moved, he deserved it.
"He's done really well for this club and hopefully he'll go on and have a really good career."
The defender added: "We had a meeting with him just to say all the best and we're really happy for him that he got his move because he has done great for the club.
"He's a nice lad, great pro, comes in every day, trains hard, eats right, his home life is great, he's got a lot of goals for this club so he deserves the move."
Jackson scored 21 goals in the Gills' promotion campaign from League Two in 2008/09 and 18 as they were relegated from League One in 2009/10.
