Norwich appoint Farke as Neil's successor
Borussia Dortmund II's Daniel Farke and Edmund Riemer are the new management team at Norwich City.
Norwich City have announced Daniel Farke as their new head coach as the club seek a return to the Premier League.
Farke leaves Borussia Dortmund II and has signed a two-year deal at Carrow Road, along with his assistant Edmund Riemer.
Under the leadership of the 40-year-old, Borussia Dortmund II finished second in Regionalliga West last season, with Farke having replaced current Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner in the role.
Farke succeeds Alex Neil, who was sacked by the club last season as their promotion hopes faded, with Alan Irvine taking temporary charge until the end of the campaign.

"I had a really good time with Borussia Dortmund, but Stuart Webber has told me all about Norwich City, its traditions and history, and I know what a great club it is.
