Goalkeeper Ben Alnwick is likely to have played his last game for Norwich City with an injury set to curtail his loan spell at Carrow Road.

The 22-year-old keeper has returned to parent club Tottenham after picking up a hip injury during the midweek Johnstone's Paint Trophy win over Brentford.

Alnwick, whose loan deal expired in October, is now likely to be sidelined for six weeks.

"It's a blow," manager Paul Lambert told the club's official website. "He's done well. He did great the other night against Brentford, where he made a really good save from their lad's header."

Meanwhile, Lambert has confirmed that Wales Under-21 left-back Rhoys Wiggins has returned to training following injury.
