  • Goalkeeper Vladan Kovacevic has returned to full training after being sidelined by a quad injury that kept him out of Tuesday’s victory against Oxford. A decision regarding his participation in the upcoming match will be made on Friday afternoon.

  • Top scorer Jovon Makama underwent foot surgery this week, and Clement reported that the procedure went smoothly.

  • Clement stated that the surgeon who performed Makama’s operation is someone he is familiar with— the son of a former president of his previous club, Club Brugge, in Belgium.

  • Midfielder Amankwah Forson has also returned to full training after an injury; he last featured for the Canaries in December.

  • On-loan midfielder Sam Field is set to play in the FA Cup for Norwich City.

  • Clement mentioned that there are no updates regarding Josh Sargent; the striker has been absent since refusing to participate in the FA Cup third-round match against Walsall.
