The Canaries had been linked with another swoop this summer but Roeder says the player is not for sale after Birmingham were relegated.
"No, I think as far as I understand it, because Birmingham have been relegated and he proved in their promotion year back to the Premiership that he's a major player in this division, they want to keep him," Roeder revealed.
"But I'm not too worried. I've got other targets in that position that I'm working on and I'm confident that we'll have breakthroughs with players in that position over the next few weeks.
"There are a lot of people on holiday and not contactable and we'll just have to sit here, stay calm and wait for some more action. But there needs to be action because I've thinned the squad out to the point of being bare."
