Taking part in a Premier League video of various managers and players saying their names, Norgaard showed that it is pronounced in a wildly different manner. Taking to the screen, Norgaard read his own name out — with his surname sounding like 'Nar-goo'. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS Fans reacted with shock at the revelation.
