Gabriel Sara is absent from Norwich City's matchday squad as they face St. Pauli in their final pre-season friendly this afternoon.
The Brazilian is closing on a move to Turkish giants Galatasaray, who saw a bid worth more than £20million plus add-ons accepted by City. He's expected to be at Carrow Road, but will watch on from the stands.
Jose Cordoba will also miss out, having failed to recover from the groin injury that kept him out of Tuesday's draw with Hoffenheim. Adam Idah is on the bench, after being left out of that game for disciplinary reasons, with Josh Sargent starting up front.
New signing Ben Chrisene makes his first start for the club after appearing as a substitute in Austria.
Ashley Barnes is set to miss the first few weeks of the Championship season after having surgery on a calf injury sustained last term.
Former Canary Danel Sinani is on the visiting bench.
