Norwich City have today confirmed that Richard Money has departed the club.
The 61-year-old leaves his post as the club’s academy manager, and will now seek pastures new.
He was a fairly new arrival at Carrow Road, having joined the club’s youth setup back at the start of the year. However, with Stuart Webber now at the helm and in charge as a director of football, it looks as though he has a man in mind for the role.
Money, as quoted by the club’s official website, admitted that Webber will be looking towards a trusted associate of his for the role, and that he himself is open to a return to management in the game.
If I’d met Stuart 10 years ago I believe we would have formed a formidable team, but more than most I understand he needs someone he already has that type of relationship with to be in my key position right now.
I supported Norwich as a boy and I enjoyed the opportunity working with the Academy, however, watching Daniel Farke over the past six weeks has rekindled my appetite for management again and is something I would like to be considered for once more.
I managed to get two of my previous three clubs promoted and the other in the play-offs. I hope a club can recognise that and give me the opportunity to continue that success.
The former Liverpool player’s most recent gig as a first-team manager was with Cambridge United, where he left in 2015.
He will now look towards new opportunities, with Steve Weaver looking likely to replace him as academy manager following his departure from Huddersfield.
