Scott Hogan: Birmingham City sign Aston Villa forward for undisclosed fee

Birmingham City have signed striker Scott Hogan from neighbours Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee.

Hogan, 28, has agreed a four-year contract at St Andrew's after scoring seven goals in 18 appearances during a loan spell last season.

The Republic of Ireland forward moved to Villa from Brentford in 2017 for a fee which it was said could reach £12m.

But he had loan spells with Sheffield United and Stoke City before joining Birmingham in January.

His most recent goal for the club was in a 3-1 home defeat by Reading in March, their last league game before the coronavirus lockdown was imposed.
