Lee Bowyer
is poised to make his loan move to Birmingham from West Ham
permanent in the next few days.
The 32-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan at
St Andrews
and Blues manager
Alex McLeish
expects the deal to be completed by Wednesday.
The midfielder played 17 times for Birmingham as they booked
their place in the Premier League by finishing second in the
Championship last term.
The Blues boss is keen to add to his midfield after considerably
strengthening his defence this summer.
McLeish had expressed concern that the permanent transfer may
not happen if the Hammers man failed to lower his wage demands, but
it now appears that an agreement has been reached.
The Blues will be Bowyer's fifth club in what has been an
eventful career to date.
