Under Philippe Clement’s leadership, Norwich City has moved away from the relegation zone and looks forward to a better future. The Canaries have several great young talents on their roster as they focus on developing players.

Emiliano Marcondes is among those who suffer as a result of this downward trend. Despite having just played one Championship game since Boxing Day, the 30-year-old refused to quit NCFC, raising questions.

According to Campo, Marcondes has said that Norwich City informed him that his minutes would be cut to accommodate other players in his position.”The club told me that they wanted to invest playing time in some of the younger players and the players who have been here for a longer time,” added the coach.

Marcondes aims to demonstrate his continued worth to Norwich City. He knows his position in the pecking order and that there are still departure options available.

The MLS, like other European leagues, still has transfer windows open. The Dane may receive some enticing offers in the future, but he is currently focused on making the most of his current circumstances.

However, a summer exit appears to be unavoidable, assuming Marcondes does not leave before then. Last summer, NCFC renewed his contract with a 12-month option, which was a no-brainer given his early performance.

However, when younger players emerge and Clement prefers alternative choices, Marcondes will face a change of scenery.

Norwich City’s possibilities for attacking midfield

In recent weeks, Anis Ben Slimane has been preferred in offensive midfield. This season, the Tunisian international has performed well for Norwich City, scoring four goals and assisting five times in 12 games.

Paris Maghoma, a new addition, has demonstrated his advanced midfield skills since his arrival. Oscar Schwartau and Mathias Kvistgaarden are two more candidates who can also fill other roles.

Last season, Marcondes shown that he can still add value at this level. He will be available to step in as needed between now and the end of the season.

However, NCFC’s strategy is mainly youth-focused. With younger players emerging and attracting the eye, Marcondes’ future clearly lies elsewhere.
