Nottingham Forest loan Robert Tesche to Birmingham City

German midfielder Robert Tesche has joined Birmingham City on loan for the rest of the season from fellow Championship side Nottingham Forest.

The 27-year-old was a regular for Forest in the first half of the season, but hasn't featured once since Dougie Freedman replaced Stuart Pearce at the City Ground.

He now moves to the Blues until May 2, with Forest able to recall him after 28 days if they wish.

Tesche signed for Forest on a free transfer last summer, going on to score twice in 25 appearances before his omission under Freedman.
