Discussions with Hughton imminent for Norwich position
Chris Hughton Set to Return to Norwich City
After a brief stint at Birmingham City, Chris Hughton is poised to make a return to Norwich City. The news comes following the granting of permission for Hughton to speak to Norwich City about their vacant managerial position at Carrow Road.
Hughton, who previously managed Norwich City from 2012 to 2014, has shown interest in rejoining the club. His tenure at Birmingham City saw him lead the team to the Championship play-offs last season, but despite his efforts, Birmingham City missed out on a return to the English top flight.
Norwich City's decision to approach Hughton comes after the departure of Paul Lambert to Aston Villa. The Canaries have remained tight-lipped about the situation, with no further comments made at this stage.
Hughton's potential appointment was confirmed after Birmingham City acknowledged his status as a great manager and believed that he deserved the opportunity to speak to Norwich City. The club, however, has not made any official statement regarding Hughton's departure.
During his first stint at Norwich City, Hughton led the team to an 11th-place finish in the Premier League during his first season. Despite this success, he was dismissed following relegation in the 2013-14 season. If appointed, Hughton will be tasked with helping Norwich City regain their Premier League status.
As the situation unfolds, fans of both Norwich City and Birmingham City eagerly await the outcome of the discussions between Hughton and Norwich City.
