Norwich striker Jackson eager to see more Canadians in Premier League

Norwich City striker Simeon Jackson is eager to see more Canadians make the move to Premier League.

Jackson - who agreed an extension to his Norwich contract during the close season - revealed part of that international revival is down to his productive Carrow Road spell.

"For me as a player on the field I feel the national side now has that belief we can get a result - no matter who we are playing," he told Pink 'Un. "I have that at Norwich where we are not afraid of anyone. Maybe I wasn't ready for that when Norwich came in for me originally.

"I had to earn my stripes and learn the game a bit more in the Championship, but now I feel I am ready and capable of proving myself at the top level."
