Stoke winger Luke Chadwick has joined Norwich on loan with a view to a permanent move in January. Chadwick wanted to move to East Anglia to be near his Cambridge-based family.
The 25-year-old former Manchester United player said: "The travelling has been a struggle for me, which is why my form has been up and down."
Stoke boss Tony Pulis added: "I understand his reasons for leaving and the club is doing the right thing by him in the circumstances."
