Norwich City legend Dale Gordon has said living in Dubai has been a "testing time" after the city came under fire from Iranian drone and missile attacks.

The former midfielder, who played for the Canaries between 1984 and 1991 before moving to Glasgow Rangers and West Ham, relocated to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) 14 years ago.

Gordon, who grew up in Caister-on-Sea, near Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, said he was attending an annual golf event with ex-England and Scotland footballers at a hotel next to Jebel Ali Port when it was targeted.

"Over the weekend it was quite a scary environment," said the 59-year-old.
