Birmingham City manager Lee Bowyer expects to complete the signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers goalkeeper Matija Sarkic. Sarkic has been training with Blues throughout this month in the hope of sealing a loan move to the Championship club for the upcoming 2021/22 season. He’s featured in three friendly games, including Blues’ 3-2 defeat to Northampton Town at Sixfields on Saturday – though he was at fault for one of the Cobblers’ goals. Bowyer is willing to overlook Sarkic’s lapse and believes Blues will soon complete a deal to take him to St Andrew’s on loan.
Lee Bowyer said: “I am glad he has done it here and not in a proper game. I said, ‘Look, things happen in football, it’s how you react as a person’, and I thought second half he did well, he tidied up behind the back lads really well at times. He still kept trying to pass it, which was the right thing to do, so fair play to him. I just said ‘Never do it again’. I think that deal will get done, he has done really well since he has been with us, so I think that will happen.”
Sarkic will be joining fellow Wolves player Dion Sanderson at St Andrew’s after the Wednesfield-born defender moved to the Second City earlier this week. Sanderson penned a fresh four-year contract at Wolves before the loan deal was confirmed.
