After finishing in mid-table in the 2017/18 campaign, Daniel Farke will be hoping that his second season at Norwich City will bring more success.

Norwich are now preparing for their third consecutive season in the Championship following their relegation from the Premier League and they will be aiming for a play-off push.

There are the makings of a good side at Carrow Road but inconsistency has blighted their season.

This summer is therefore going to be an interesting one, with a few incoming players expected, as well as a few sales.

Star man James Maddison is almost certainly going to depart and it is just a matter of how much money the Canaries can fetch for the young midfielder.

That money needs to be reinvested in the squad wisely so that progress can be made for next term.

Here is how Norwich City could line up next season, including two new faces from the academy and three new signings.

Norwich will struggle to re-sign loan star Angus Gunn with Premier League teams interested in the young stopper.

They should instead hand an opportunity to academy product Matthews, 24, who has impressed on loan at Plymouth this season.

Initially signed as a central midfielder, Farke deployed Reed as a right-back at the end of the season and he impressed thoroughly.

Norwich now need to prioritise a permanent deal for the 23-year-old, who is struggling to get game time at Southampton.

Towering 6ft 4in defender Zimmermann had a solid season for Norwich.

The 25-year-old is expected to remain at Carrow Road and star in their defence next season.

With the 30-year-old standing alongside Zimmermann, there will not be an attack in the division that can beat the 6ft 4in pair.

The Switzerland international is likely to attract interest this summer but Norwich should try to hang onto him for their upcoming campaign.

Lewis enjoyed a positive breakthrough season for Norwich last year and caught the eye with a goal against Chelsea in the FA Cup.

The 20-year-old is already a full Northern Ireland international and is hoping to kick on next term.

Initially signed on a short-term deal, there was plenty of scepticism surrounding Trybull's arrival at Carrow Road last summer.

But the 25-year-old defensive midfielder has proven many doubters wrong and looks so comfortable at Championship level.

Norwich should hand first-team opportunities to academy product Godfrey next season after a terrific season on loan at Shrewsbury Town.

The 20-year-old holding midfielder provides so much protection for the defence and he has helped guide the Shrews to the cusp of promotion via the play-offs.

Norwich also need to pursue a permanent deal for Leitner, who joined on loan from Augsburg in January.

The 25-year-old showed that he has magic feet and he could provide the creative spark if Maddison leaves.

After a frustrating first half-season at Norwich with injury concerns, Hernandez will be ready to kick on next season.

The 25-year-old showed glimpses of his talent and now needs to prove himself over the course of a whole year.

Murphy is likely to attract Premier League interest but Norwich should hold onto him and he is perhaps too inconsistent to play at the top level just yet.

The 23-year-old is quick and can be a goal threat on his day, making him a useful player to have as a winger or as a second striker.

Norwich need a new striker with Nelson Oliveira's exit looking likely and they have been linked with a move for former Borussia Dortmund forward Ducksch.

The 24-year-old German striker is the top scorer in the Bundesliga II for Holsten Kiel and he would surely be a good addition for the Canaries.
