On loan Manchester United defender Brandon Williams is being investigated by Norwich City, after the full back's post on Instagram was deleted.
Williams made his breakthrough at United in the 2019/20 season but found himself out of the team in the following campaign, due to Luke Shaw's resurgence.
This season he has been on loan at Norwich, in an attempt to get him more first team football, and he has been one of the few successes for the Suffolk side.

It's unlikely that Williams will be back at the club next season, with Dean Smith's team facing at least a year back in the Championship following their relegation.
Now though the club are said to be looking into his social media activity, according to the Athletic, after he posted a photo with his middle finger showing with the caption, "What a beautiful day. Easy up Norwich City," also location tagging Suffolk.
The bizarre post was deleted from his Instagram story soon after and was soon replaced by a couple of slides about his two dogs, much more wholesome content.

First the full back posted a video of his dog sat outside enjoying the sun, captioned, "For the people that followed me he's always awake," followed by a load of laughing emojis.
That was then then accompanied by a black and white picture on the next slide of another dog, with the caption "So is she too," with four smiling emojis.
The swearing at his current club could be seen as similar to an incident involving Brentford striker Ivan Toney earlier in the season, when the forward was on holiday.

Toney was on holiday in Dubai during the international break in January, when a video of him saying "F**k Brentford" several times went viral.
Brentford investigated the incident and the striker apologised, saying, "I have explained to the gaffer what happened and apologised to him but I also want to apologise to all Brentford fans.
"I respect the way you all support the team and I have to say how much I love playing for the club and for you."
Williams himself went viral on social media earlier in the season for much funnier, and more wholesome, reasons, when Norwich played against Toney's side.

The full back clashed with Christian Eriksen and got angry with the Dane, before realising who it was and deciding to hug him instead of hit him.
