Deadline Day: Blues sign former Blackburn Rovers man

Birmingham City have today completed the signing of former Blackburn Rovers midfielder Jason Lowe.

The 26-year-old has signed a one-year deal with the club following his release from Rovers at the end of last season.

Following their relegation to League One in the 2016/17 season, Lowe was let go. Since then he has had a trial with Premier League side West Bromwich Albion but he was unsuccessful in earning a deal.

The news on Lowe’s arrival comes on the same day that Blues learnt that they have failed in their efforts to bring Torino midfielder Afriyie Acquah to the club.

Sky Sports are now reporting that Blues have made a move for Sheffield Wednesday midfielder Barry Bannan.

Welcome to Blues, Jason.
