Exclusive; How is ex-Norwich City and Ipswich Town manager Paul Lambert getting on these days?
Paul Lambert is a well-known figure in English football manager, having worked at Norwich City, Aston Villa, Wolves, Blackburn, Stoke, and Ipswich Town, however he has been out of management since leaving Ipswich in 2021.
Lambert rose to prominence as a manager after leading Norwich City to two successive promotions and promotion to the Premier League in 2011. He later joined Aston Villa in the summer of 2012.

Livingston | 2005-06 |
Wycombe Wanderers | 2006-08 |
Colchester United | 2008-09 |
Norwich City | 2009-12 |

However, his 16-year management tenure came to an end in 2021 after leaving Ipswich Town, who were in League One at the time, and despite being only 55, Lambert’s managerial career looks to be done, at least in the short term.
With this in mind, we’ve looked at how he’s performing since leaving Ipswich Town in 2021.
Paul Lambert denied chances to engage in football management.
He has had employment offers in a range of jobs.
Lambert’s LinkedIn profile highlights his recent travels, including representing Borussia Dortmund in Asia and meeting former Queensland Rugby League coach Sir Graham Lowe in Australia.
He also played for Dortmund in a legends’ game versus Celtic at Celtic Park, managing the Scottish team for half of the game before switching to the German side for the second half, demonstrating his popularity with both clubs.
He looks to spend a lot of time in Germany, both watching Dortmund and working for the club, and it’s evident that he enjoys life away from the bench.
There’s little question that he could still work as an EFL manager, but Lambert has been traveling the world and doing things he would not have had the opportunity to do as a manager, and he appears to be enjoying his new beginning.
