‘Not surprising at all’ – Many Birmingham City fans react as player nears move away | OneFootball

Birmingham City goalkeeper Zach Jeacock is set to join League Two side Salford City on loan, according to Alan Nixon.

The 20-year-old had a taste of first-team football at St. Andrew’s last season, and earned himself a new deal until 2024 at the end of the campaign.

The goalkeeper started the first game of the season, keeping a clean sheet in a 1-0 home victory over Brentford before Neil Etheridge came in and established himself as number one.

Jeacock then spent most of the season out through injury, but returned to make one final league appearance in a 4-0 defeat to Cardiff City.

But with Lee Bowyer already bolstering his goalkeeping options with the loan signing of Matija Sarkic from Wolves, Jeacock looks set to head out on loan.

Alan Nixon reports that Salford City are set to bring Jeacock in on loan, in what he calls a ‘surprising move’ due to the recent arrival of Tom King.
