Birmingham agree fee for Blackburn's Dunn

Birmingham City have agreed an undisclosed fee with Blackburn Rovers to buy midfielder David Dunn, the club have revealed. The fee is estimated to be in excess of £5.25m sterling.

The premier league clubs have been in negotiations over Dunn, who has one England cap, for several weeks, with Birmingham's initial appearance-related offer of around £5m being turned down.

Dunn, who played for England in last September's friendly against Portugal, will now meet Birmingham manager Steve Bruce and club officials to discuss personal terms.

The 23-year-old has been at Blackburn since he was a trainee but turned down a contract extension at Ewood Park in May. Last season he struggled to hold down a regular first team place after falling out with manager Graeme Souness.
