Dunfermline released a statement that read: "Josh can operate on both the right and left flank, and is also well regarded as a hard working team player. "We would like to thank Neil Adams and his colleagues at Norwich City, along with Josh's agent, for allowing him to come to East End Park, as the next stage of his football development."

He is someone who always wants to take the opportunity on. He is as quick with the ball as he is without it, and we also have a lot of time to improve certain aspects of his game."
