Norwich City Head Coach Philippe Clement has been speaking to the press ahead of the Canaries home game against Walsall in the FA Cup tomorrow afternoon

Captain Kenny McLean is not expected to be involved, with Clement indicating an unspecified minor fitness issue, but the Scot is expected to be available for the return to Championship action next weekend.

Clement also confirmed that both recent signing Ali Ahmed and fit again fellow wide player, Papa Amadou Diallo, are not under being considered for selection this weekend.  Both need more time on the training pitch to build up their fitness before being included

Young midfielder Gabe Forsyth is now in the early stages of his return to first team training. Forsyth has not featured in the first team since November 2024, after a long running complicated knee injury that has required multiple surgeries to repair.

Shane Duffy, Jeffrey Schlupp  and Amankwah Forson who are all out with hamstring injuries remain longer term absentees and are not expected in the next week or two
