Midfielder Darel Russell has returned to Norwich after completing a move from Stoke to Carrow Road.

The 26-year-old, who started out with the Canaries before joining Stoke, has moved for an undisclosed fee and signed a three-year deal.

"I've got a lot more experience and a lot stronger since I was last here," Russell told the club's website.

"As a manager, (Norwich boss) Peter Grant wants to be playing football the way I want to play as a midfielder."
