Players who could captain Norwich in Zimmermann’s absence

Norwich revealed on Wednesday that Christoph Zimmermann has suffered a knee injury and could miss the start of the Premier League season.

The German central defender has been ruled out for up to six weeks, which would mean he would be out for the first few games of the 2019/20 campaign.

Zimmermann played 45 times for Norwich in all competitions last season, scoring three goals, and formed a strong partnership with Ben Godfrey at the back for Daniel Farke. 

He also captained Norwich for the majority of the second-half of the season, with club captain Grant Hanley out of favour.

Norwich travel away to face Liverpool at Anfield on the opening day of the season, with Farke now having to choose a new captain for the first game of the campaign.

So, here are some players who Farke could pick to captain his side at Anfield in the Premier League next month…
