Chairman David Sheepshanks says the Blues have agreed a fee with Sheffield United for midfielder Alan Quinn. The 28-year-old, who joined the Blues on an emergency loan on Friday evening, is now discussing personal terms.

Sheepshanks said: “We have agreed a fee with Sheffield United to make Alan's move here a permanent one.

"We are now in discussion with Alan regarding personal terms and hope to finalise those details and complete his medical in the next couple of days."

Reports this morning set the fee at the £300,000 mark.
