'I didn't believe it would go that well': Teemu Pukki opens up on 'crazy' start to life in the top-flight with Norwich... and admits coronavirus crisis might have spoiled his touch after two months of playing only with his DOG

Teemu Pukki is eager to see how spending two months away from training has affected his ball control, revealing he has been playing football with his dog during the coronavirus lockdown.

Norwich staff returned to Colney Training Centre last week as clubs around the country prepare for the resumption of the Premier League season on June 17.

Canaries players will have inevitably lost match fitness over the suspension period, and Pukki says he has found it difficult to sharpen his skills at home.

'That is the only touch of the ball that I have had during this break, playing with my dog in the back garden,' Pukki told Sky Sports.
