Norwich's Shulberg follows Thorup to Vienna
- Published
Norwich City academy manager Joe Shulberg has left the club to link up with former Canaries head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup.
Thorup was appointed by Austrian club Rapid Vienna on 30 December, his first management job since leaving Carrow Road last April.
Shulberg joined Norwich in 2017 and having become academy boss in the summer of 2023, stepped up to work with the first team on a temporary basis in September of the following year.
He will be an assistant coach at Rapid, who are currently seventh in the Austrian Bundesliga, and Thorup has also recruited former Norwich analyst Alan Arac to be part of his backroom team.
In a statement, Rapid have "warmly welcomed" Shulberg to the club and state he is the first Englishman to join the club's coaching staff in 100 years.
Former Cardiff and Southampton player Stanley Willmott worked with legendary Rapid boss Dionys Schonecker during the 1925-26 season.
