Bundesliga club Werder Bremen are loaning Scottish striker Oliver Burke to English second division club Birmingham City for a season. This was announced by the Hanseatic League on the night shortly after the end of the transfer period in England.
“Oliver had expressed to us that he wanted to be loaned out again in order to get more playing time. We couldn’t guarantee that with us,” said Werder’s professional football manager Clemens Fritz.
The 26-year-old Burke played on loan for Millwall FC in the second half of last season.
