This week, devastating news regarding player injuries was brought to Norwich City. Before their next match against Bristol City, head coach David Wagner gave updates on the team’s injury status. The following are the main ideas Wagner discussed:
Grant Hanley should be returning next week, and Jacob Sorensen has resumed his training.
For the next game against Bristol City, there are no fresh injury concerns.
During his substitute appearance against Preston, Jonathan Rowe effectively made his comeback following a 10-week absence due to a hamstring injury.
Wagner underlined the value of having a supportive crowd and creating an environment that was comparable to that of the last home game against Ipswich.
The coach emphasized that even with a victory, the team still needs to win all three of their home games in order to qualify for the playoffs.
Wagner noted Josh Sargent and Ashley Barnes’ excellent understanding and harmony on the field, and he applauded their striking collaboration.
He said he wouldn’t trade his present strikers for any other strikers in the division, expressing faith in them.
Wagner said that, when the defender was thinking about leaving Norwich last summer, he persuaded Sam McCallum to stay. Because of Dimitri Giannoulis’s injury, McCallum is the team’s first-choice left back at the moment.
