Norwich City confirmed their new football and recruitment departments on Wednesday morning.

Here we take a look at the people involved, their new roles and the jobs they have held in the past.

Neil Adams (assistant sporting director)

Made 206 appearances as a player for Norwich City between 1994 and 1999 and is a member of the club’s Hall of Fame.

Led the club’s Under18s to FA Youth Cup glory in 2013 before being appointed caretaker first team manager following Chris Hughton’s sacking. Made permanent manager in May 2014 but resigned in January the following year. However, Adams returned to the club in the summer of 2015 to become the Canaries’ loans manager, a role he has thrived in, helping the development of numerous stars including James Maddison, Ben Godfrey and Todd Cantwell.

Lee Dunn (head of recruitment)

Got his first job in football as a first team performance analyst at Torquay United before moving on to Bristol Rovers in a similar role in August 2009. Became head of performance analysis back at Torquay in July 2011 before a short spell as a first team performance analyst with Everton.

Joined Norwich City as a first team performance analyst in July 2013 before becoming the head of performance analysis in July 2015. Three years his later his role was changed to also include recruitment analysis.

Dunn has been the man at the heart of producing the dossiers on new City signings, the like of which convinced Ben Gibson to sign for the Canaries in the summer of 2020.

“I met Stuart (Webber), the manager and the head analyst (Dunn) at the same time,” said Gibson. “I joked afterwards, but it was no exaggeration, the analyst knew more about me than me. They put together a presentation and they left no stone unturned.”
