Norwich City Transfers: 5 Attacking Midfielders To Replace Wes Hoolahan

3. Erik Falkenburg (Go Ahead Eagles)

Finally, onto a player that is actually an attacking midfielder by trade in the shape of Go Ahead Eagles€™ Erik Falkenburg. Signing Dutch players has been a trend that Norwich started in the summer with the signings of Ricky van Wolfswinkel and Leroy Fer €“ and they may fancy acquiring a third Dutch player this month. The player also has the adaptability to play in a number of different roles as well like central midfield or as a forward, things that will attract Hughton as he is working with a relatively small squad with few big stars. The Eredivisie is certainly improving in quality, and is an attractive place for Premier League clubs to look for players, especially since transfer fees tend to be smaller than some other leagues. This season Falkenburg has performed well in league games by scoring seven goals as well as providing an assist from his 16 games. Further stats include 1.8 shots, 0.5 key passes and 0.5 dribbles. Obviously, Norwich would be looking towards the player to score goals on a regular basis from an attacking midfield position, something that they haven€™t been able to do so far this season.
