Norwood started playing football when he joined his brother’s team back in his home town.

After a few years, Norwood managed to play well and was soon a member of Manchester United’s under-18 team. Soon after, he became a regular of the team as well.

It was in the 2009 to 2010 season that Norwood was able to join the reserve team and was even called to play for the first team during a match in the Champions League stage match against Wolfsburg. Although he was able to join the team to Germany, he was not able to play for the team during the match.
