Birmingham Sign Brighton Midfielder Leonard


Birmingham City have signed Brighton midfielder Marc Leonard for an undisclosed fee to complete an eighth summer signing for new boss Chris Davies.

The 22-year-old Scot, who began his professional career at Heart of Midlothian, has spent the last two seasons on loan at Northampton Town.

He has signed a four-year contract, subject to clearance from the EFL and FA.

"I felt like the time was right," Leonard told BluesTV.

"And I knew that Blues was the club that I wanted to play for so I really pushed for the deal to go through.

"Based on where I am in my career and where Birmingham are trying to get to, I just felt like the ambition of this club really matched my own."
