In a stunning development that has thrilled fans and reignited club spirit, Birmingham City has officially appointed Trevor Francis as their new manager. The announcement marks a historic return for the football legend, who made his name at St Andrew’s as a prodigious talent in the 1970s before becoming England’s first £1 million player.
Francis, who has remained closely connected to the club over the years, brings a wealth of experience both as a player and manager, including successful spells at Sheffield Wednesday and Birmingham City itself in the 1990s. His return comes at a critical time for the Blues, who are looking to rebuild following a difficult season and recent managerial instability.
Club chairman Tom Wagner praised the appointment, saying, “Trevor embodies the spirit and tradition of Birmingham City. His deep connection with the club and vast football knowledge make him the ideal leader to guide us forward.”
Speaking at his unveiling, Francis said, “It’s an honour to be back. This club means the world to me, and I’m determined to restore pride, passion, and performance to the pitch.”
