Canaries announce second signing of the day

Norwich City have announced the signing of Andre Wisdom from Liverpool on a season-long loan.

The Canaries also unveiled Robbie Brady earlier today in a deal worth ÂŁ8million from Hull City, and the Liverpool defender becomes the club’s fourth new arrival so far this summer.

Wisdom, who spent last season out on loan with West Bromwich Albion, has been in East Anglia for the past day or so speaking to Norwich officials and completing all the necessary medicals and paperwork.

The 22-year-old made 24 appearances for WBA last season, and is expected to play an important part in Norwich’s campaign back in the Premier League.

Speaking to the club’s official website, Alex Neil revealed his delight at capturing the young right-back on a season-long loan.

Manager Delighted

Neil told canaries.co.uk: “I’m delighted as Andre fits our profile in terms of getting hungry players in who want to make their way in the game.

“He’s also had Premier League experience with a few different clubs, so we’re happy to get it over the line. It will add to the competition for places as he’s a flexible player.

“In the past he’s played centre-back and right-back. Having added competition to the left-hand side with Robbie Brady, it was important to add something to the right side as well.

“The squad is certainly getting stronger, which I’m really pleased about.”
