Earlier this year, the ex-City striker, who made 168 appearances for Norwich and scored 78 goals, was announced as part of a consortium to form a “new strategic relationship” with Dereham Town.

The consortium, which also involves a group of other local businessmen, will advise the Magpies’ existing committee and intends to provide a long-term strategy and sustainability vision.

When the consortium was announced, a club statement said: “The consortium’s aim will be to protect the long-term security of the club from a financial perspective and deliver a new strategic focus to allow it to grow and succeed on and off the pitch.”
