Birmingham City hunt new faces

Birmingham boss Alex McLeish today refused to give up on his hunt for reinforcements.

Blues threw away a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 at 10-man Bolton yesterday after failing to agree personal terms with Wigan winger Charles N’Zogbia.

But McLeish insisted he will do everything he can to improve the squad before the transfer window closes tomorrow.

He said: “We’ve lost out on some good players but I think the fans need to know that we are in the market for improving the quality of the squad. It is going to be nip and tuck until five or six o’clock.”

Blues had agreed a fee with Wigan for N’Zogbia but the deal broke down over personal terms.”
