This transfer came out of the blue…

Lucien Mahovo has joined Norwich City for an undisclosed fee.
The 19-year-old defender, who signed his first professional contract with us in December 2022, departs for the Sky Bet Championship having made his league debut on the final day of last season.
A statement from our board of directors reads: “While we’re very keen to see academy graduates like Lucien go on to establish themselves in our first team, we should also take pride in our ability to nurture young talent in a way that attracts interest from clubs in higher divisions.
“Having progressed well since his arrival in the 2021-22 season, Lucien thoroughly deserves the recognition this move brings for him – and we’re very happy with the structure of the deal.
“We’d like to acknowledge the efforts of everyone in our academy who was involved in bringing Lucien to the club and his development thereafter.”

We seem to be engaged in a ruthless mass cull of central defenders.
Good for him.
Wasn't expecting that. Totally out the blue.
Makes you wonder if he was that good why wasn't he playing for us.
Sounds like a good opportunity and good to see Notts getting some money for him too.
[P.S. Threads merged]
Is it only me who thinks our squad is beginning to look very threadbare now? Especially defence. Begs the question why he never got a chance in our first team if Norwich think he is worth a punt. Another disappointing move of young talent yet again.
No idea what kind of fee we've received, but I would have liked to see him forge a career at Notts if he's decent, especially given that we're short on numbers at the back. Definitely need a couple more defenders now.
Good luck to him anyway.
