Former Coventry City striker Marlon King will have a new manager at Birmingham City after the Brummies appointed Chris Hughton as manager.
Birmingham confirmed the appointement with a short statement which reads:
"Following productive talks acting chairman Peter Pannu felt that Hughton was the perfect candidate to take charge.
"Pannu was particularly impressed by Hughton's vision and footballing theories of garnering youth and playing attractive and effective football."
Birmingham have not confirmed how long Hughton's contract will be or if he will allowed to bring in his own backroom staff.
