THE SUBPLOT to Leeds United manager Daniel Farke’s first return to Norwich City on Saturday afternoon is a fascinating one.
The personal aspect has been talked up with Farke and his compatriot in David Wagner - the man who he replaced as Borussia Dortmund’s second-team boss in 2015 - putting their wits against each other in a Championship match of significance at Carrow Road. As far as Farke is concerned, the game will not resemble a ‘chess match’ between two impressive German managers who have both produced second-tier stories to savour in England.
'He also worked for Dortmund and went to England and got Huddersfield promoted and I had a similar way. But our approach and way of football is different in some ways.”Geographically, Norwich and Leeds may be over 200 miles apart, but that has not stopped a mini rivalry developing since their days in the third tier in the late noughties. Both were promoted in the 2009-10 season with the Canaries lifting silverware by way of the League One title.
