Norwich City fans have welcomed the signing of midfielder Oliver Skipp on loan, thanks to plenty of reassurance from Tottenham supporters.
The England Under-21 international has joined the Canaries on loan for the 2020-21 campaign, after making 11 appearances for Spurs last season, two of which came in the Champions League.
In total the Tottenham academy product has made 23 appearances for his parent club and he signed a new three year deal, with the option for a further year, last month.
Spurs boss Jose Mourinho revealed a loan spell was likely at the time and also said he believed that Skipp could one day captain the North London club.
He becomes the eighth signing of the summer transfer window for the Canaries ahead of their return to the Championship and is the first to be signed on loan.
