Here is a list of football players who were born in Norfolk, UK, and have played for the England national team:
1. Bryan Gunn
* Born: 22 December 1963, Thurso, Scotland (though he spent much of his career in Norfolk and is closely associated with Norwich City)
* Position: Goalkeeper
* Note: Although Bryan Gunn is closely associated with Norwich and Norfolk, he did not earn any caps for the England senior team. His inclusion is more about his strong ties to the area.
2. Chris Sutton
* Born: 10 March 1973, Nottingham, England (However, he grew up in Norfolk and is closely associated with the region)
* Position: Striker
* England Caps: 1 (1997)
3. John Ruddy
* Born: 24 October 1986, St Ives, Cambridgeshire, England (Although not born in Norfolk, he played for Norwich City and earned England caps while there)
* Position: Goalkeeper
* England Caps: 1 (2012)
4. John Hollins
* Born: 16 July 1946, Guildford, England (However, he had a managerial stint at Norwich City which ties him to Norfolk)
* Position: Midfielder
* England Caps: 1 (1967)

None of these players were actually born in Norfolk, but they are closely associated with the region due to their careers, particularly with Norwich City. This reflects the strong footballing culture in Norfolk, centered around Norwich City FC.

Unfortunately, there are no well-known footballers born specifically in Norfolk who have played for the England senior national team. Most notable players associated with Norfolk have typically played for Norwich City and contributed to the sport at a high level, but not all made it to the national team or were born in Norfolk.

Here’s a list of football players born in Norwich, Norfolk, UK, who have played for the England national team:

1. Kevin Keelan
* Born: 5 January 1941, Calcutta, India (though he is strongly associated with Norwich)
* Position: Goalkeeper
* England Caps: None (Keelan is another player closely associated with Norwich but did not earn a cap for England. He played over 600 times for Norwich City.)
2. Russell Martin
* Born: 4 January 1986, Brighton, England (But spent much of his career in Norwich)
* Position: Defender
* England Caps: None (He played for Scotland instead, but had a significant career with Norwich City)
3. James Maddison
* Born: 23 November 1996, Coventry, England (However, he played for Norwich City and his performances there contributed to his England call-up)
* Position: Midfielder
* England Caps: 3 (As of 2024)
4. Chris Woods
* Born: 14 November 1959, Swineshead, England (But began his career at Norwich City)
* Position: Goalkeeper

These players are closely associated with Norwich due to their careers at Norwich City, but none were actually born in the city. Finding an England national team player specifically born in Norwich is challenging, as most of the notable players associated with Norwich tend to have been born elsewhere but made significant contributions to the football culture in the region through their careers at Norwich City FC.
