Matthews was expected to be given a chance at making the number one shirt his this summer.
However, a number of high-profile errors in pre-season appear to have changed Farke’s mind.
Norwich completed the signing of Tim Krul on a free transfer following his release from Brighton, taking over as first-choice.
Farke has said that Matthews needs to develop more and that Norwich are not prepared to take a risk in regards to the goalkeeping position.
