Norwich City, known locally and by their fans as The Canaries due to the team’s bright yellow kit, are an English Premier League team who were formed 116 years ago in June 1902.
Carrow Road is Norwich City’s home ground, a 27,244 capacity all-seater stadium located in Norwich, Norfolk, England.
The Canaries were first promoted to the first tier of English soccer in 1972, but they have never won the first division title. The closest Norwich City came to being crowned champions was back in 1993 when they navigated their way to an impressive third-place finish.
Norwich City does have some silverware in their trophy cabinet having won the League Cup in 1962 and 1985.
Norwich City last graced the Premier League during the 2015-16 season but were relegated after finishing in 19th place, second from the bottom of the table. The club spent three seasons in the Championship, finishing eighth, 14th and then storming to the Championship title during the 2018-19 campaign.
The recent success of Norwich City can be credited to their fine manager Daniel Farke, a Germany coach who is quickly gaining a reputation for being one of the best up and coming managers in the game.
It was Farkle who transformed Norwich City into a side that plays free-flowing, attacking football and who was instrumental in signing Teemu Pukki on a free transfer from Danish side Bronby.
Pukki went on to score 29 goals in 43 Championship appearances and was one of the many reasons Norwich City deservedly were promoted to the Premier League as Champions.
Fans of Norwich City will be hoping their beloved Canaries can spend longer than one season in the Premier League, having been relegated the season following promotion in 2004-05 and again in 2015-16. WIth Farkle at the helm, anything is possible.
