Neil Adams explains Mark Bunn's tour omission

Manager Neil Adams suggests that number two goalkeeper Mark Bunn is looking to leave Norwich City.

Norwich City manager Neil Adams has hinted that goalkeeper Mark Bunn could leave the club this summer.

The 29-year-old was left out of Adams's 24-man squad that is currently in Italy for pre-season training and friendly encounters.

When asked about the keeper's situation at Carrow Road, Adams conceded that Bunn has grown frustrated at a lack of playing time.

"Mark's situation is he is in the last year of his contract here and he wants to play first-team football and rightly so. I can understand that," Adams told the Eastern Daily Press. "I thought it was a good opportunity to bring Remi Matthews out along with Declan [Rudd] and have them competing for the number one shirt.

"Mark is in that mix as well but it is better for him to play and train with the Under-21s rather than come out here and play 45 minutes perhaps in nine days. It is in the best interests of the player and I feel we are well covered in that department."

Bunn joined Norwich from Blackburn Rovers in the summer of 2012.
