About Jacob Murphy in brief
Jacob Kai Murphy is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for Newcastle United. He is the twin brother of professional footballer Josh Murphy. Murphy made his first-team debut for Norwich City in an FA Cup match against Fulham in January 2014. He has also played on loan for Swindon Town, Southend United and Sheffield Wednesday. On 14 August 2015, Murphy signed for Coventry City on a season-long loan deal. He scored his first goal for the club in a 4–1 win over Blackburn Rovers on 6 August 2016. Murphy signed a three-year contract with Norwich City on 4 January 2013. He was part of the Norwich City youth team which won the 2012–13 FA Youth Cup. Murphy caused controversy when he posted an image on social media application Snapchat with the caption \”We are going to lose…
Again\”, which mocked the club’s recent league form. The following month, Murphy issued an apology to the club for the ‘foolish’ and ‘unprofessional’ post. He signed for Newcastle on a loan deal on 19 July 2015. He had a successful full season on loan, scoring 10 goals in 42 games, with nine of those coming in league games. Murphy scored two goals in two games in three days in games against Barnsley and North End. His first full season at Norwich yielded 40 goals in 40 games, including nine in the league. He also helped the club survive relegation when they beat Preston North End 1–1 on 1 August 2015.
