Norwich City winger Christian Fassnacht has returned to training this week after a long-term injury, Johannes Hoff Thorup confirmed.

Norwich City have started the season well and sit in 8th place after 12 games.

The Canaries are unbeaten in their last seven games and are enjoying life under new head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup. The Dane has been without some key players in recent weeks too, including the influential Marcelino Nunez. The Chilean picked up a knock against Stoke City and has not featured since.

However, one man who is close to returning is winger Christian Fassnacht, who has been out since the first game of the season.

Speaking ahead of this weekend’s trip to Cardiff City, Thorup has provided an update on the Switzerland International. He confirmed Fassnacht has returned to the group and the same goes for winger Tony Springett.

Caution is being taken with the earlier mentioned Nunez with a return this weekend seemingly unlikely, while Angus Gunn and Ashley Barnes are also set to remain absent as they recover from injuries.
