Veteran Dublin signs for Norwich

Norwich have signed former England striker Dion Dublin, 37, on a contract until the end of the season.

Dublin, who won four England caps and also played for Manchester United, Coventry and Aston Villa, was a free agent after being released by Celtic.

"I'm delighted to capture such an experienced player," boss Nigel Worthington told the club website.

"He's a big character and a top quality player. His ability and professionalism will be a big plus for us."

Worthington added: "His main position is as a striker and obviously that's where I am looking for him to be involved, although obviously he can also provide strong cover in the centre of defence as well."

Dublin actually started his football career as a trainee at Carrow Road, playing a handful of reserve games, before moving on to Cambridge, Manchester United, Coventry, Villa, Millwall and Leicester.

He joined Celtic on a short-term deal in January, but only started three league games before being released at the end of the season.

  • Canaries defender Adam Drury will be sidelined for three to four weeks as he will have an ankle operation on Friday.
