Callum Doyle Shines as Versatile Full-Back for Norwich City

Former Norwich City star Simon Lappin praises Callum Doyle's adaptability as he transitions from centre-back to full-back, making a significant impact with three assists in the season.

Former Norwich City star Simon Lappin has expressed confidence in Manchester City loanee Callum Doyle's ability to excel in the full-back role. After a challenging season hampered by injuries while on loan at Leicester City, the Manchester City academy product has joined Norwich City on loan for the 2024/2025 season.

Despite being primarily a centre-back, Doyle has adapted well to his new position, featuring as a full-back in the last four matches for the Carrow Road outfit. Lappin praised Doyle's versatility, highlighting his impressive performances and contributions to the team. "Doyle has shown us versatility; he has played there [as a full-back] for the last three or four games," Lappin said on Canary Call. "He is a centre-back, I think, first and foremost, but he is more than capable of playing there."

Doyle's impact on the squad has been significant, with three assists recorded during his time in the full-back role. He has started all nine games for Norwich this season, showcasing his potential and adaptability. As the Canaries look to build momentum under manager Johannes Hoff Thorup, Doyle's continued performance will be crucial in their campaign.

Inside Futbol notes that Norwich City fans can expect Doyle to remain an instrumental figure as the season progresses, especially given his strong start and eagerness to contribute to the team's success.
