The German was sacked after the Canaries lost 4-0 on aggregate to Leeds in the play-off semi-final last month, with Thorup now tasked to lead Norwich back to the Premier League.

The 35-year-old, led FC Nordsjaelland to a fourth-placed finish in the Danish Superliga last term, has already completed the first signing of the summer with Jose Cordoba arriving from Bulgarian giants Levski Sofia.

The Panamanian is unlikely to be the last arrival this summer, while several departures are also expected.

Here, Football League World, recaps the latest transfer rumours swirling around Carrow Road.

The impasse over Adam Idah's situation looks destined to drag on for a while longer.

Idah joined Celtic on loan in January and scored nine goals in 19 matches in all competitions to help the Hoops retain the Scottish Premiership title, and he also scored a 90th-minute winner in the Scottish Cup final against Rangers last month.

According to HITC, Norwich value the striker at £8m and Brendan Rodgers has made no secret of the fact that he'd love to bring the 23-year-old back to Celtic Park, but the appointment of Johannes Hoff Thorup may complicate his plans.

Football Scotland reported Norwich's new bos wants to evaluate Idah for himself before sanctioning any move, putting the forward's future plans in some doubt.

Norwich want big fee for Marcelino Nunez

According to Turkish outlet Sabah, Norwich have told Trabzonspor to raise their offer if they want to sign Marcelino Nunez this summer.

Sabah reported last week that the Superlig club had tabled a €3.5m (£3m) offer for the midfielder, but its latest report indicated the Canaries have demanded a bigger fee for the Chile international.

The 24-year-old has developed into a crucial cog in the Canaries' midfield since joining from Universidad Catolica in his home country for a reported £3m fee two years ago, scoring five goals and providing five assists in 81 appearances in all competitions.

Norwich are reportedly interested in Toulouse defender Moussa Diarra, according to French outlet Foot Mercato.

The centre-back made 31 appearances in all competitions for the Ligue 1 side last season and has attracted interest from fellow French clubs Marseille, OGC Nice and Stade Rennais and Real Betis in Spain.

Norwich's Championship rivals West Brom are also interested in signing Diarra, who will be a free agent from July 1.

FC Augsburg are leading the race to sign soon-to-be former Norwich defender Dimi Giannoulis, according to Sky Sports Germany’s Florian Plettenberg.

The Bundesliga club are said to have edged ahead of rivals in England, Italy and Greece, who were all linked to the defender according to Pink Un.

Giannoulis will officially become a free agent on July 1 and will leave Carrow Road after making 103 appearances for the Canaries in all competitions over two and-a-half seasons.
