Norwich hold O'Neil talks in new manager search

Norwich have held talks with Gary O'Neil as they search for a new manager.

The Canaries met with O'Neil, who played for the club between 2014 and 2016, earlier this week as they step up their recruitment process.

Liam Manning was sacked on Saturday following a last-gasp 2-1 defeat by Leicester City, and they have lost of their eight games at Carrow Road this season.

The result left the Canaries 23rd in the Championship.

Norwich are due to speak to other contenders over the next 48 hours.

Manning beat O'Neil to the job in the summer, joining from Bristol City, but the the club have kept their lines of communication open with the former Wolves boss.
