Jack Wilshere has left Norwich City after an interim spell as the club’s head coach.
The former Arsenal and England midfielder oversaw the club’s final two games of the Championship season: a goalless draw against Middlesbrough and a 4-2 win over Cardiff City respectively.
The Athletic reported earlier in May that Wilshere would depart Carrow Road and he would now look to pursue coaching opportunities elsewhere.

Wilshere had been at Norwich as a first-team coach since October after leaving his position as Arsenal’s Under-18s head coach.
Norwich sporting director Ben Knapper said: “Jack made a big impact here in the time he was with us. He built great connections with our players and staff, and we’re all sad to see him move on.
“We were all very grateful for him stepping in as our interim head coach for the final two games of the season, but we understand and respect his desire to further explore opportunities elsewhere.
“He leaves with our very best wishes, and we’ll follow his progress closely. I’ve no doubt he’ll go on to have a very successful coaching career in the senior game.”
In an interview with The Athletic last month, he admitted: “I’m really enjoying the journey. I like to have an end goal in sight, and that is to be a head coach.”
Prior to his first game, a 0-0 draw with Middlesbrough on April 26, Wilshere said: “I’ve been in the role for two and a half days. I feel like I’m ready to make an impact at this level, I want to be a head coach at this level, but if you start thinking too much about that you can get carried away.
“To be offered it, I’d probably have to show Ben that I can make the team perform, and the next two games will give you more answers than speaking to me.”
Four points from the final two games of the season saw Norwich finish 13th in the Championship. Already well off the promotion places, they ended the season 11 points and seven places adrift of the play-offs.

Úspěch českého vodního slalomu. Kajakář Kopeček se stal juniorským mistrem světa
Po semifinálových jízdách juniorských kajaků byli přitom trenéři lehce zaskočeni. „Pouze dvě lodě ve finále, po jedné v každé kategorii, jsme vnímali jako neúspěch,“ řekl na svazovém webu šéftrenér mládeže Pavel Foukal.Rozhodující jízdu ale oba čeští finalisté zvládli na výbornou. „Bára Ondráčková jako nejmladší členka výpravy ale jela finále jako ostřílená závodnice a jen 19 setin jí chybělo k titulu mistryně světa,“ řekl Foukal o patnáctileté svěřenkyni.Michal Kopecek (CZE) wins gold in the Junior Men's Kayak Slalom Final / 2025 ICF Kayak Slalom Junior & U23 World Championships 🥇 pic.twitter.com/gxG9EVDsE8— Everything canoe, kayak, and SUP (@PlanetCanoe) July 10, 2025 „Hrdinou dne je jednoznačně Michal Kopeček.

McIlroy in Scottish Open mix after late birdie burst
Rory McIlroy produced a brilliant late birdie burst to stay within four strokes of the lead after a low-scoring opening round at the Genesis Scottish Open. McIlroy birdied each of his last three holes to card a two-under 68 at the Renaissance Club, as four players shared the early lead at the event co-sanctioned by the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour. Ryder Cup team-mate Sepp Straka carded a six-under 64 to top the leaderboard alongside Jake Knapp, Nico Echavarria and Victor Perez, with Scotland's Calum Hill and England's Marco Penge among the quartet a stroke back in tied-fifth.Viktor Hovland and former US Open champion Wyndham Clark were in the group two off the lead and world No 1 Scottie Scheffler opened with a three-under 67, as 32 players were separated by just three strokes after the opening day.McIlroy […]
Skandál v Rusku. Fotbalový klub vyloučili z ligy
„Ruská Premier League striktně dodržuje princip nulové tolerance vůči korupčním praktikám a jakýmkoliv pokusům ovlivňovat výsledky zápasů mimo hřiště. Ten, kdo porušil základní principy fotbalu jako férové hry, nemůže zůstat nepotrestán – ať už jde o rozhodčího, funkcionáře, trenéra, nebo hráče. V případě závažných porušení musí být potrestán celý klub, který se pokusil získat výhodu nelegálními prostředky,“ vysvětlil rozhodnutí disciplinární komise Ruského fotbalového svazu prezident nejvyšší soutěže Alexandr Alajev.Torpedo Moskva kromě vyloučení z Premier League musí zaplatit pokutu pět milionů rublů (přes 1,3 milionu korun).

Nuggets’ Cameron Johnson, Tim Hardaway Jr. explain why they’re excited to play with Nikola Jokić
The Denver Nuggets reloaded this summer. After falling in the second round of the playoffs to the eventual champion Oklahoma City Thunder, the Nuggets went out and positioned themselves as a serious threat to the Thunder repeating next season. They traded Michael Porter Jr. to the Brooklyn Nets for Cameron Johnson, then signed Tim Hardaway Jr. away from the Detroit Pistons, to add to their bench depth.Both acquisitions very clearly tell us what Denver's plans were for this summer: add more shooting. Hardaway is a microwave scorer, capable of racking up points in a hurry if he's got the hot hand, and the ideal spark plug to have off the bench for a team that ranked 27th in bench scoring last season. Johnson is the even better get here for the Nuggets, as someone who fits the mold of a […]
