His other three appearances also came off the bench in Championship matches against Luton, Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest, logging seven minutes in total.

He has impressed in the Papa John's Trophy this season, scoring four goals in the group stage with the highlight of his performance being the hat-trick he bagged against League Two opponents Newport County.

Omotoye joined Norwich City at the age of twelve and signed a contract extension with the club until the summer of 2024 last month.
