Harry Redknapp appointed manager of Birmingham City

    Harry Redknapp has been named as the new manager of Birmingham City.

    The former Tottenham and West Ham boss was appointed after Birmingham parted company with Gianfranco Zola on Monday, 17 April.

    Redknapp has a task on his hands – the Blues are 20th in the Championship with only three games left of the season.

    The 70-year-old has not managed in England since leaving QPR in February 2015.
