Birmingham’s prospective new owner Carson Yeung has revealed he will foist Hong Kong players upon manager Steve Bruce. Blues fans will be delighted to hear that the businessman sees their return to the Premiership as the perfect opportunity to test the credentials of young Hong Kong players. The return to the top for flight could degenerate into an international exchange programme!
Yeung said: “I love football very much and also want to see more opportunities for Hong Kong players. I am sure players from Hong Kong have the potential to play at a much higher level if they receive proper training. I don’t mind sending them to Birmingham City for this purpose.”
