Scottish midfielder
/ defender Ian Murray joined Norwich on a free transfer from Rangers
on 24th August 2007, making his debut the day afterwards in a
2-1 defeat at Hull. He can play centre back, left back, right
back, defensive midfielder and even as a striker, but prefers
centre-back or central midfield.
He began his career with Hibs making 166 appearances scoring
seventeen goals. He was the Hibs' captain before he joined Rangers
on a free transfer in the summer of 2005.
Whilst at Hibs, he captained the Scotland Under-21 side and won
his first international cap coming on as a substitute against
Canada in October 2002.
The Light Blues had
initially looked for a transfer fee for Murray, who joined Rangers
from Hibs, where he was captain, in the summer of 2005, but have
let him move for free as he was on he fringes of the Rangers squad.
Out of favour under new Norwich manager Glenn
Roeder, Murray was linked with a move to Falkirk by the News
of the World on 16th December 2007. He has also been linked
with moves to Brighton and to former club Hibs.
On 18 January 2008 Murray completed a move back to his first
club Hibernian on a contract until the end of the 2007-08 season
