Norwich City sign Michael McGovern on three-year deal

Norwich City have completed the signing of Northern Ireland international goalkeeper Michael McGovern on a three-year deal.

The 32-year-old was without a club having left Scottish Premiership outfit Hamilton Academical at the end of last season, but now rejoins former Accies boss Alex Neil at Carrow Road.

McGovern was part of the Northern Ireland squad that reached the last 16 at Euro 2016 this summer, producing a particularly memorable display against world champions Germany in the group stages.

"Having worked with the gaffer before, that was a big pull for me. I had some interest from elsewhere but I'm really looking forward to working with him again now at Norwich. It's nice to join a club where I'll have some familiar faces around me," he told the club's official website.

"I'm aiming to get into the team but I know I'm up against some top-class goalkeepers. It's going to be intense competition, although it's a challenge I'll relish. I want to play but also I want to help the younger players coming through as much as I can. That's something I've looked to do at my previous clubs, and I'll look to lend my experience wherever possible."

Neil added: "Michael is a player that I've worked with before, so I know all about his qualities and his character.

"He's a fantastic professional, and he showed he's capable of playing at the top level with his performances for Northern Ireland at the Euros. He will come in and offer great competition to our current goalkeepers."

McGovern becomes Norwich's second signing of the summer following the arrival of Sergi Canos from Liverpool.
