Birmingham Complete Defender Deal

Michael Morrison has completed his switch to Birmingham City on a three and a half year deal. He was previously on loan with the club from Charlton.

Gary Rowett brought in the defender immediately after arriving once he had watched the players train. Clearly something defensively had to be done.

The deal was made possible due to a change in management at Charlton. Where Morrison was once vice captain and a starter, he found himself out of the team, despite signing a new deal.

Morrison has been ever present in the Birmingham defence since joining and it looks like he will have a long career with the club.

Rowett: ‘He sees the size of the club and sees that his opportunities are possibly limited back at Charlton. What`s quite refreshing is that he`s a player that really wants to play football and that`s of paramount importance to him.

‘It`s been great to get him on board. We`re really happy about it and we think he`s a really good signing. He`s the right age, the right character and it`s the right time of his career and really good for us.

‘I`ve been delighted with his performances so far and like I`ve said previously he`s kept two very good centre-halves out of the team. It was an obvious one for us to try and extend further.’
