Norwich City manager Glenn Roeder has continued his rebuilding job at Carrow Road by capturing Luton Town midfielder David Bell on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
The highly-rated 24-year-old had been at Kenilworth Road since January 2006 having joined the club from Rushden & Diamonds, and played 89 games for the Hatters.
Roeder said of his latest acquisition: "David's a player, like others we've secured this summer, who we've been following for some time.
"We've tracked his progress over the last season and we've been impressed with his spell on loan at Leicester in difficult circumstances for that club.
"He'll add quality to our midfield from wide areas and I'm fully expecting David's career to now fulfil the potential he first showed at Rushden as a young player."
