Popular midfielder departs Birmingham City after lengthy spell

Birmingham midfielder David Davis has left the club after six and a half years at St Andrew’s.

The 29-year-old arrived from Wolves in 2014 and went on to make 194 appearances for Blues. He scored 11 goals during his time at St Andrew’s.

Davis was named Birmingham’s Players’ Player and Supporters’ Player of the Season in 2016-17.

However, he has dropped out of favour in recent times. After spending time on loan at Charlton last term, Davis is yet to make an appearance this season.

Paying tribute to Davis, a statement on Blues’ website thanked the player for his service.

“Embodying everything that it means to pull on the royal blue jersey, his attitude and application was second to none. He had the ability to inspire achievement out of everyone who had the opportunity to play alongside him.

“Good luck and best wishes, Digga.”
