Rumours have it that Norwich might swoop for shamed Australian keeper Mark Bosnich. The controversial 37-year-old, who last appeared in English football in 2001, is making a comeback in his native Australia. And during the past week he is reported to have met the Canaries' first team coach, Ian Crook, currently on holiday in Sydney.
Bosnich, who won 17 caps for his country, was a Premiership title-winner with Manchester United nine years ago after twice winning the League Cup with Aston Villa. He had a five-year exile from football after being sacked by Chelsea in 2002 for failing a drugs test. In 2007, he resurfaced when he trained with Queens Park Rangers, then last year had a seven-game stint with A-League team Central Coast Mariners in Australia.
