After Norwich City sacked Johannes Hoff Thorup, Jack Wilshere has been named as the head coach of the club on interim basis. He was under Thorup as an assistant coach and now has taken the main role until the end of the season.

Norwich City have named Jack Wilshere as interim head coach following the sacking of Johannes Hoff Thorup. The former Arsenal midfielder, who had been serving as an assistant under Thorup, will now take charge of the first team until the end of the season.

Thorup’s dismissal comes amid a disappointing run of form, with the club failing to meet expectations in their push for promotion. Wilshere, 33, is set to step into the spotlight as he takes on his first senior managerial role.

While his appointment is currently on a temporary basis, the club hierarchy is said to be open to reassessing the position depending on the team’s performance under Wilshere’s leadership.

The former England international is highly regarded for his footballing IQ and leadership qualities, and fans will be eager to see how he handles the challenge as Norwich aim to end the campaign on a strong note.
