Shane Duffy: Republic of Ireland defender joins Norwich City after leaving Fulham

Norwich City have signed Republic of Ireland centre-back Shane Duffy on a free transfer.

Duffy, 31, was released by Fulham at the end of his contract and has signed a three-year deal with the Canaries.

"I'm ready for a new chapter in my career. And I'm excited to help the team get back to the Premier League," he told Norwich's website.

Duffy joined Fulham on a season-long loan from Brighton last summer and on a permanent deal in January.

He did not start a league game for the Whites, but turning his loan move into a permanent one enabled the west London club to sign Cedric Soares on loan from Arsenal.
