Jose Cordoba sits out Norwich City's friendly against Hoffenheim in Austria with a knock, but Angus Gunn returns and new signing Ben Chrisene is on the bench.

Chrisene's move from Aston Villa was confirmed earlier on Tuesday, after linking up with the Canaries following his move for an undisclosed fee.

Cordoba picked up a slight knock in training and City will take no risks with their Panamanian international summer signing.

Kellen Fisher was also due to start left back but has supected tonsillitis but Gunn does feature for the Canaries for the first time this summer, after his Euro 2024 participation with Scotland combined with a minor injury to delay his return to club action.

He starts in goal for City's penultimate warm-up fixture.

 

Adam Idah is out in Austria but not involved against the Bundesliga side. Jacob Sorensen is also a notable absentee with a knock. Johannes Hoff Thorup is expected to update on both after the game.

Christian Fassnacht also sits out the action in St Johann in temperatures nearing 30c.

Ashley Barnes will miss the first few weeks of his side's Championship campaign after having surgery on his calf.

Norwich City: Gunn, Stacey, Hanley, Hills, Montoia, McLean, Nunez, Sara, Rowe, Sargent, Sainz. Subs: Long, Barden, Duffy, Warner, Adegboyega, Chrisene, Renecke, Forsyth, Hernandez, Gibbs, Kamara, Myles.
