Norwich appoint Manning as new head coach
- Liam Manning, the 39-year-old former Bristol City manager, was named the new head coach of Norwich City in June 2025.
- Manning left Bristol City after guiding them to a sixth-place Championship finish and play-off semi-finals, while Norwich sacked Johannes Hoff Thorup following a disappointing 13th-place campaign.
- Norwich secured Manning by activating his estimated £800,000 release clause from Bristol City and finalized a four-year contract following a comprehensive recruitment campaign overseen by sporting director Ben Knapper.
- Manning said he is privileged to join a club with "a big history and tradition" and praised the clear alignment in vision and strategy he found with the owners and Knapper.
- Norwich expects Manning, noted for outperforming resources and his winning record, to drive the club forward aiming at promotion, while Bristol City assesses options after losing their committed coach of 18 months.
