Birmingham City have made David Stockdale their first summer signing after the goalkeeper agreed a three-year deal with the club.
The 31-year-old joins on a free transfer after he was unable to agree a new deal with former club Brighton. Premier League champions Chelsea were thought to be keen on a deal but Blues have won the race for his signature
Stockdale was an integral part of Chris Hughton’s side who gained automatic promotion to the Premier League, keeping 20 clean sheets in 45 games – the most in the league.
Harry Redknapp is expected to make Stockdale his first choice goalkeeper with Tomasz Kuszczak, Adam Legzdins, Conal Trueman and Jake Weaver still all under contract at the club.
