Norwich have signed Newcastle midfielder Isaac Hayden on a season-long loan.
The 27-year-old arrives at Carrow Road having recovered from a long-term injury, which kept him out of the second half of last season.
The Canaries will have to make the deal permanent if certain performance-related criteria is met.
It comes as Norwich target an instant return to the Premier League after relegation last season.
Isaac has made 161 appearance for Newcastle. He's also played for West Brom, Arsenal and Hull City.
Speaking to the club website, Hayden said: "This is a fantastic club. Everything is well run, it has got a good infrastructure and the stadium and the fan base is great."
“I am here to try to help the team get back to the Premier League. The facilities at the training ground are great and changed significantly from when I have visited before.
"I’ve also looked at our squad and I want to add to that and help get us promoted straight away.
“The head coach was a big factor for me. He called me straight away and saw that I was out of the picture at Newcastle.
"I had spoken to him a few times before and he always struck me as somebody who was trying to do the right things and doing things very well at football clubs."
