Norwich signing Ogwuru inspired by ex-Man City teammate Lewis

Former Manchester City academy prospect Daniel Ogwuru is determined to make the most of his Norwich City move.

Ogwuru has signed permanently with the Canaries.

"It feels great to sign for the club," he added. "When the project was presented to me, I felt like it was a great opportunity.

"The facilities here at the Lotus Training Centre are amazing, it really looks like a place where I can develop myself. At Manchester City you learn a lot of football education, you understand the game better."

Ogwuru admits he takes inspiration from former City teammate Rico Lewis.

"I was playing with him a year ago and in six months he's just shot up into the first team," the former Blues youngster said upon signing for Norwich. "It shows that if you are patient and you wait and work hard, your time will come.

"That's got to be me now. I think I'll be able to bring that here and implement that into my games with the Under-21s."
