STAN AGREES NEW BLUES DEAL


Birmingham City winger Stan Lazaridis has agreed a new deal to stay at St Andrews.
The 32-year-old had been considering his future as he had just one year to run on his current deal.

Lazaridis has now agreed a one-year extension with the option of another after lengthy talks with Blues officials.

The former West Ham star admitted a number of other clubs had expressed an interest in him, but that his first intention was always to stay with Birmingham.

"Of course, I am really happy to be staying at the club," Lazaridis told the club's official website.

"There has been interest in me from a few clubs over the summer, which is very flattering from my point of view.

"To a lot of the clubs I have said that if Brucie (Steve Bruce) didn't want me here or was looking to move me on, then I would listen to what they had to offer.

"But if he did want me here, I would rather stay, even if it was on less money than I might get elsewhere, because I am settled here and I am happy."

MORRISON NETS TREBLE

Clinton Morrison fired out a warning to Birmingham City's other strikers with a hat-trick in Monday's 5-0 friendly win over VFB09 Possneck on Monday.
The Republic of Ireland international faces stiff competition for a place in Steve Bruce's first team from the likes of Emile Heskey, Stern John and Mikael Forssell, but he laid down a marker on Monday with a treble blast.

Morrison netted twice in the first half before adding a penalty after the interval.

Blues' other goals came from Stern John and Mikael Forssell, as their tour of Germany kicked off in positive fashion.

Elsewhere, West Brom beat Derby County 1-0 thanks to a late strike from substitute Stuart Nicholson.

BRUCE IN ANDERTON ADMISSION


Birmingham boss Steve Bruce has hinted he could be ready to offer Darren Anderton the chance to resurrect his Premiership career.
The former England midfielder was released by Tottenham at the end of last season after spending some 12 years at White Hart Lane.

The 32-year-old has since been looking for a new club, but Bruce was initially coy when quizzed over a possible move for the former Portsmouth star.

The Blues chief insisted he was merely allowing Anderton to train with his squad to maintain his fitness levels, but appears to have been impressed with what he has seen.

Bruce admits he is now ready to sit down with the experienced midfielder and discuss a deal.

"Darren has got other options but I will speak to him when I get back from our tour of Germany," he declared.

"I know he is a good player. You don't get 30 England caps for nothing."
