Birmingham City land Kristian Pedersen from Union Berlin

Birmingham City have completed the signing of defender Kristian Pedersen from Union Berlin.

Previous reports suggest that the Blues paid £2.2m to secure the left-back's services.

Pedersen, who is capped for Denmark at Under-21 level, has signed a four-year contract with the Championship outfit.

The 23-year-old started in 30 of Berlin's 34 league matches in the German second tier last season.

Pedersen is Garry Monk's first signing since taking charge of Birmingham.
