Foster Transfers To Birmingham

I'm as upset as yours when I heard about this and it's confirmed he's going to Birmingham in a six million pounds fees. Being a high profile player since Sir Alex brought him from championship team but the injuries he sustained and inconsistent performance has made it more difficult for him to fight his place. This would be the first transfer the team has made for next season campaign.

Ben Foster is expected to complete a £6million move from Manchester United to Birmingham on Tuesday. A fee was agreed between the two clubs last week and Foster is expected in the midlands on Tuesday morning for a medical that will seal his Old Trafford exit. Although he began last term with high hopes of ousting Edwin van der Sar from his status as United's first-choice keeper, Foster's chance disappeared with high-profile mistakes against Manchester City and Sunderland during a two-month period at the start of the campaign when the veteran Dutchman was missing through injury. Despite these blunders, Foster was handed successive England starts, against Belarus and Brazil, leading to an expectation he would claim a place in Fabio Capello's World Cup squad.Sports staff, Daily Mirror
