Neil Adams hopes midfielders Leroy Fer and Wes Hoolahan will remain at Norwich City when the 2014-15 Championship season commences.

Fer is due back at Carrow Road six days before Norwich's first league match of the new campaign against Wolverhampton Wanderers, having featured for the Netherlands at the recent World Cup finals and scoring the first goal in their 2-0 group stage win over Chile en route to a third-place finish at the tournament in Brazil.

Hoolahan, on the other hand, attracted interest from Aston Villa during the January transfer window - as reported at the time by the Daily Mirror - but while Adams anticipates interest in the Republic of Ireland international and his Dutch club colleague, he expects both of them to be Norwich players at the start of August.

"The phone will be ringing all the time for our players because we have such good players," the Canaries manager was quoted as saying by the BBC.

"Fer has just come back from the World Cup, when he scored a goal for a really good team, so that has a knock-on effect. People are going to want him, but I hope he will be wearing a yellow shirt on 10 August.

"He's just got married, he's due to be back with us on 4 August for the week leading up to the first game against Wolves, and I hope he'll be with us at the end of that week."

The 48-year-old added: "Everyone knows I think Wes is a fabulous player who will give many defenders problems at this level and beyond.

"I've sat him down and said how important he is to us and what I think of him, and I think he's happy."
