Birmingham City complete club-record Jota deal

Birmingham City have completed the signing of Jota from Brentford in a club-record deal.

The fee for the 26-year-old remains undisclosed, but Birmingham have confirmed that Jota is their most expensive signing ever, eclipsing the £6m fee paid to Valencia for Nikola Zigic.

The Spanish attacker has put pen to paper on a four-year deal at St Andrew's, keeping him at the club until 2021.
