Former Leeds United star previously linked with Sheffield United tipped as free agent option for Norwich City
The Canaries have been dealt a significant blow in their attacking department, losing marksman Josh Sargent to injury.
Fellow forward Ashley Barnes, meanwhile, has been out of action all season with a calf problem. The free agent market can be dipped into at any time and Roofe is among the most high-profile attackers on it.

Speaking to Football League World, Sky Sports pundit Don Goodman has suggested Roofe as a potential option for the Canaries.
He said: "They're going to have to do something, whether that's explore the free agent market or promote somebody from the youth team.
“After a tough trip to West Bromwich Albion next, they face Plymouth, Luton, QPR and Portsmouth and will have to take points from that run of fixtures or face being dragged into a relegation battle. Maybe the international break has come at the right time

"But, equally, what have Norwich got to lose with signing someone like Kemar Roofe? They could sign him on a short-term deal and almost take him on trial. It would be a win-win for both parties who have very little to lose."
Roofe spent three years on the books at Leeds, scoring 33 goals in 122 appearances between 2016 and 2019.
He left for Belgian side Anderlecht in the summer of 2019, later returning to the United Kingdom to join Rangers.
