Norwich City leading race for Ajax's Jakov Medic - reports

1 week ago | edp24.co.uk | Samuel Seaman

De Telegraaf have stated that the Canaries face competition from Championship rivals West Brom as well as sides from the bottom end of the Bundesliga, but that they're currently set to beat them to his signature. The report claims that Medic is available for around €3million this summer, or just over £2.5million, having spent last term on loan in the German top flight with eventual bottom side VfL Bochum.
Norwich City putting defence first with Harry Darling deal

1 week ago | edp24.co.uk | Samuel Seaman

New managers promise exciting tactics before delivering pragmatism; players are exalted and then see very little game time; youth development is promised and experience soon reigns. All of these situations have been true at Norwich City in the fairly recent past, so when the right messages are conveyed, it's always worth waiting for the substance to judge. That's why many took Liam Manning's encouraging unveiling with a pinch of salt, and they were right to do so.
Norwich City confirm details of new membership scheme

The three-tiered scheme will allow fans to buy tickets for games as well as receiving other benefits, including an exclusive shirt created by kit sponsors Joma and discounts on stadium tours. The shirt is available only to 'platinum' members, who will pay £99 and also have access to an official members' scarf, 50pc off tours, early access to home and away tickets and "regular chances to win exclusive City experiences and goodies".
Man management vital in Liam Manning Norwich City hiring

1 week ago | edp24.co.uk | Samuel Seaman

That's according to Canaries sporting director Ben Knapper, who's spent the week planning for the 2025-26 season with Manning after his unveiling at Carrow Road on Monday. Predecessor Johannes Hoff Thorup was sacked in April, with several critics labelling his dressing room management a weakness as form tumbled at the end of last term. But Knapper fears no such problems under his new charge, and that was a significant factor in the decision to poach him from Championship rivals Bristol City.
Crunch time for Norwich City sporting director Ben Knapper

1 week ago | edp24.co.uk | Samuel Seaman

Perhaps the rapid plights of Dan Ashworth at Manchester United and Newcastle's Paul Mitchell have changed the climate in that sense, but still few expected Norwich City chief Ben Knapper to be facing as important a decision as he did in April. Knapper's shock axing of head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup less than a year into the Dane's tenure sent shockwaves through the Canaries fan base, in the process highlighting how poorly his first ever managerial appointment had gone.
Canaries' supporting cast goes from age to youth in one season

2 weeks ago | edp24.co.uk | Samuel Seaman

Thorup was dismissed as the Canaries' head coach with just two games of the Championship season left and Norwich 14th placed - set for their equal-lowest finish in 15 years. Perhaps it's fair, then, to consign any of the work he did to the negative books of the club's history, with his managerial reign likely known for little else than its brevity and how it ended. But that would be to discount some of the long-term benefits introduced by a strategy whose virtues he extolled near-incessantly.
Norwich City transfer priorities clear as shake-up continues

With four managerial unveilings completed in the last three-and-a-half years, they're used to the conventional platitudes that come on such occasions. They've heard too many times about pride at signing, appreciation of supporters and desire to be pro-active in a style of play.

Opportunity knocks for Norwich City's Ruairi McConville

Those were the words of the Northern Irish commentary team amid a 2-1 friendly loss to Denmark over the weekend. An illumination perhaps of views on both the Championship and McConville outside the Norwich City bubble. In many ways the expectation for City’s winter arrival are understandable: he was signed after coming through an esteemed Brighton academy, aged just 19 but having claimed two international caps already.
