English Championship side, Norwich City, have completed the signing of Ghanaian international Jeffrey Schlupp on a free transfer after his departure from Crystal Palace.
Schlupp has signed a one-year deal at Carrow Road and will wear the number 27 shirt.
Joining the Canaries, Schlupp said: "I'm really excited, it's something new again but a lot to look forward to back in the Championship at a big club.
"I've spoken to the head coach about the plan for this year and I am excited to be involved.
"I'm looking forward to meeting all the players and hopefully we can create something special this year."
Norwich City sporting director Ben Knapper added: "Jeffrey’s career so far speaks for itself and we’re delighted to welcome him and his family to Norwich City.
“He is a player of immense experience having played at the highest levels both domestically and internationally for many years. His quality, versatility and character will all be great assets for us, and he will serve as a fantastic reference point for our younger players in particular this season.
“He will provide competition and depth across multiple positions, and we’re all really happy to have him as part of the group for the coming season."
Born in Hamburg, Germany, to Ghanaian parents, Schlupp moved to England at a young age and progressed through the academy at Leicester City, going on to make 150 appearances across all competitions.
The 32-year-old was part of the Foxes side that were crowned Premier League champions during the 2015/16 season, before making the switch to Crystal Palace in January 2017.
He would spend the next eight years with the Eagles, including time on loan at Scottish Premiership side Celtic last season, where he also lifted a league title.
