Daniel Farke is the man Stuart Webber wants to lead the Canaries into a bold new era at Carrow Road.
The Borussia Dortmund II coach has been identified after an exhaustive search by the club's sporting director as the right fit for the head coach role, working in tandem alongside Webber.
Farke replaced David Wagner in November 2015 at the eight-time German champions, when Webber enticed his predecessor to England to embark on a hugely successful period at Huddersfield.
Wagner is now one game from the Premier League as he gears up for next week's Championship play-off final against Reading at Wembley. The Terriers also completed an impressive league double over Norwich last season, playing a brand of exciting, aggressive, high pressing football.
Farke favours a more possession-based model, according to reports in Germany, and his Dortmund U23s side only conceded 25 goals in finishing second last season in the fourth tier of German football.
Farke may have been an unknown commodity in English football circles prior to this week. But how well do you know City's prospective head coach? Do you know your Farke from your Wagner?
