Having featured twice for Dundee’s Under 20s in the Scottish Challenge Cup, the equivalent of the EFL trophy, and has been a key player in their academy for nearly nine years.

This is the second time in six months that the Canaries will have signed a youngster from Dundee United after forward Brandon Forbes joined in the summer transfer window who has been a top performer for their under 21s since. He is now set to be joined by his countryman in Premier League 2.
Speaking about Domeracki’s abilities, United academy director Paul Cowie said: “He is a creative left-sided midfielder who has all the qualities to progress further in the game, having been in the academy for more than seven years.
“Patience has been the key in his recent development. Alan has the hunger and belief to work hard and exhaust all his opportunities both on and off the pitch, furthering his development.”

Norwich are open to first-team additions if their long-term targets become available, but at the moment this looks unlikely. Norwich have already signed wide players Matej Jurasek and Lewis Dobbin on loan this month as well as triggering the reported £1.2 million option to buy in the loan of Anis Ben Slimane from Sheffield United.
Asked about the club’s transfer exploits following Saturday’s 5-1 win over Swansea, Thorup told the media: “It is fair to say that we are still in the market. It’s only the 25th, so there are some days to go.”
