NORWICH City can confirm they will not be taking up a permanent option on Ajax defender Mitchell Dijks following his loan spell last season.

Dijks made 15 appearances while with City, scoring once when he netted away to Wigan Athletic in February.

Sporting Director Stuart Webber told canaries.co.uk: "Since the end of the season we’ve been in discussions with Mitchell and his representatives.

"Unfortunately, we couldn’t come to an agreement and will now be moving onto other targets."

Everyone at Norwich City would like to thank Mitchell for his efforts while with the Club and we wish him the best for the future.
