Russell Martin summer exit likely as he trains with U23s

It seems more and more likely as though Russell Martin will be leaving Norwich City on loan this summer.

According to The Pink Un, Norwich City head coach Daniel Farke as it has been confirmed that despite being in Germany for pre-season, Martin has been training with the under 23s squad and he even started a friendly match yesterday afternoon against Borussia Dortmund.

With the former Norwich City captain no longer producing performances reminiscent of a few years ago, a summer transfer for the 32-year-old seems the most convenient result for all parties.

Martin has made over 300 appearances for Norwich during his nice years at the club and it looks increasingly likely he will leave the club again. Farke lost faith in Martin in August of last year following a 4-0 hammering to Millwall. He spent the latter half of last season at Scottish club Rangers where he made 17 appearances.

With jusr one year remaining on his contract before a likely release from the club it seems as though Martin will spend his final year with Norwich away on loan once more.

Rangers are the favourites to capture his services for another season, although as it stands, no teams have approached Norwich regarding the 32-year-old.
