Ben Kensell is leaving his post as Norwich City's chief operating officer.

The Canaries confirmed Kensell's pending departure at the end of this month this week 'to pursue new challenges'.

“With a heavy heart, I have taken the difficult decision to leave Norwich City at the end of the month," he said. “I have loved every minute of my time at the club and look forward to watching Norwich City go from strength to strength.

“Working with the club's wonderful owners, Delia and Michael, the board of directors and Stuart (Webber) and Zoe (Ward) on the executive committee, I am proud of what we have been able to achieve as a collective during that period.

“We have created a club that is truly unique and is the envy of many others. There have been many highs and lows, but I am leaving the club in a much healthier position than when I arrived.

“Our world renowned, self-financed and sustainable model is now firmly established, and the club continues to lead the way in this area.

"We have proved that an ambitious, progressive football club can be successful, viable and attractive. To have played my part in leading that has been very special and gives me a tremendous sense of pride."
