Bennett seals Blackburn move

Elliott Bennett has joined Championship side Blackburn Rovers on an undisclosed four-year deal, Norwich City’s official website has confirmed.

The English winger links up with former City boss, Paul Lambert, after four-and-a-half years at Norwich.

Bennett has found games hard to come by in recent years, only playing in 10 Championship games for Norwich City last year.

Bennett made two Capital One Cup appearances for Norwich this season but was sent on loan to Bristol City for the first half of the season where he has made 15 appearances this season.

The former Brighton player will be best remembered by Norwich fans for an excellent goal against Tottenham at White Hart Lane in a 2-1 win in his first season.

Unfortunately, a knee injury picked up in the summer of 2013 hampered his campaign and he only managed to play in two games that season.

In total, Bennett clocked up 79 appearances for the Canaries scoring three goals.
