Birmingham City have completed the signing of Charlton Athletic striker Alfie May for an undisclosed fee.

May, 30, has signed a three-year contract at St Andrews.

The former Doncaster Rovers and Cheltenham Town player scored 27 goals in all competitions for the Addicks last season.

"It is a good project to be involved in. Speaking with the Manager [Chris Davies] and Craig [Gardner], the journey they want to go on as a Club - the club shouldn't be in League One," May told the Birmingham City website.

"It is exciting times, I want to hit the ground running... push on and, hopefully, get promoted."

The Blues were relegated from the Championship last season and will be hoping for an instant return to the second tier.
