Josip Drmić

Location: Norwich, England


In his spare time at home he loves to paint. The striker is creative ON and OFF the pitch!

The new striker of Norwich City was born in Lachen, Switzerland. He started his youth career at the youth academy of Zürich. He rose through the youth ranks and started to play for Zürich II (the reserve team) in 2009. And stats don't lie: this lad made 26 goals in his first 26 games. It was clear enough that the striker was a player for the future. He made his official debut in the first team of Zürich in 2010 against Neuchatel Xamax. He scored his first goal in the Swiss Super League against Luzern (1-1 draw). In the summer of 2013 the talented striker moved to the Bundesliga and signed at 1. FC Nürnberg. In his first season he played 33 games and made 17 goals. Already one year later he managed to move to a 'bigger' club: in May 2014 he signed a five-year deal at Bayer Leverkusen. Despite his 6 goals in his first season it never became a very successful period at Leverkusen, thus he decided to sign at Borussia Mönchengladbach in the summer of 2015. Three years later, in the summer of 2019, he signed at Norwich City, who just promoted back to the Premier League. He has both the Croatian as the Swiss nationality but decided to play for the Swiss national team.
