Craig Gardner completes £2m move from West Brom to Birmingham City
Craig Gardner’s £2million deal from Albion to Birmingham City has now been completed.
The 30-year-old midfielder joined Blues on loan in January, when a permanent move was written into the deal.
But now the Championship season has finished, Gardner has officially become a City player on a three-year contract.
Blues, who confirmed the deal had been ratified today, paid £1.5m for Gardner plus an extra £500,000 for the loan.
Gardner wore the captain's armband this season when Michael Morrison and Paul Robinson weren't playing.
