Midfielders Mark Fotheringham and Robert Eagle have left Norwich City after their contracts were terminated by mutual consent.

Both players were out of contract at Carrow Road at the end of the season but have left the Championship strugglers with immediate effect.

"Both players are aware that their best chance of playing regular first-team football lies elsewhere," manager Bryan Gunn told the club's official website.

"Robert Eagles has worked very hard since emerging from our Academy ranks, but has found it very tough to break into the first team and this gives him the chance to focus on new challenges and kick-start his career.

"Mark Fotheringham also wants to play first-team football and again with this news he now has the opportunity to secure a place with another club.

"I'd like to wish them all the best in their future careers on behalf of everyone at the club."
