Norwich sign trial duo

Norwich boss Bryan Gunn confirmed the signing of defender Jens Berthel Askou and striker Goran Maric – both on bosman deals.

He told the club’s official website: “Both lads were with us up in Scotland and we felt they were at the right level to offer both of them contracts.

“Both adapted well to our style of play and the physical elements, which will be needed in League One this season.”

He added: “I’m obviously delighted they have signed – both had offers from other clubs, but the attractiveness of Norwich City Football Club – the facilities and supporters have all played their part again.

“They have boosted numbers in the squad and bring healthy competition in the much needed areas of striker and defence and we look forward to working with them.”
