Danish defender Jens Berthel Askou signed a two-year deal with City in July 2009, joining on a Bosman from Turkish top-flight side Kasimpasa.
Askou joined Norwich on trial during the pre-season tour of Scotland and the Dane impressed scoring the third goal in the 3-2 win over Airdrie United.
He returned to Norfolk to train with the Canaries and played in the 1-1 draw with a Manchester United XI side at Carrow Road, putting pen to paper just days later.
Askou made his City debut in the 4-0 away win over Yeovil Town in the first round of the Carling Cup, in August 2009. He scored his first City goal four days later in the 1-1 draw at Exeter City.
During his two seasons in Turkey, Askou made 57 appearances in all competitions, scoring twice. Before moving abroad, Jens played for Danish sides Silkeborg and Holstebro.
