Arsenal youngster heads to Birmingham on loan

Polish youngster Krystian Bielik has joined Birmingham City on loan from Arsenal for the remainder of the season.

Bielik has made two senior appearances for the Gunners since arriving from Legia Warsaw.

He has all the qualities and ingredients to be a top-level centre-back.

– Arsene Wenger
