Shrewd Hughton a transfer window hit!

Norwich City
In:
Javier Garrido - Lazio - £1.28m
Leroy Fer - Twente – Undisclosed
Ricky van Wolfswinkel - Sporting Lisbon - £8.5m
Nathan Redmond - Birmingham City - £3.2m (reported)
Martin Olsson - Blackburn – Undisclosed
Gary Hooper - Celtic - £5m (reported)
Johan Elmander - Galatasaray - Loan
Out: 
Grant Holt - Wigan - £2m
James Vaughan - Huddersfield - undisclosed

What a window for Norwich City and manager Chris Hughton! Some inspired moves, notably the signings of forwards Ricky van Wolfswinkel, Gary Hooper and Nathan Redmond who will all add to the firepower of the canaries. Hughton has not spent exceedingly, spotting some absolute bargains, such as their acquisition of Javier Garrido from Lazio for a measly 1.3 million as well as just 3.2 million for young gun Redmond. Norwich really have had an outstanding window, turning themselves into candidates for a mid-place finish and a side who most tip could avoid the relegation scrap all together. Well done Chris Hughton.

Grade: A+

Great window for the canaries, didn’t overpay, strengthened defence, midfield and attack and did so earlier in the window to give the squad time to gel.
