League One side Birmingham City have signed teenage Fulham midfielder Luke Harris on a season-long loan.

The Jersey-born 19-year-old Wales Under-21 international has made seven first-team appearances for the Cottagers.

He spent the second half of last season on loan at another League One club, Exeter City, scoring four goals in 21 matches for the Grecians.

"It is, obviously, a massive club, I can't wait to get going," Harris told the club website., external

Harris' arrival marks the second successive season Blues have brought a Fulham youngster in on loan, 13-goal Jay Stansfield finishing as their top scorer last term.

Birmingham were relegated from the Championship on the final day of the season and new boss Chris Davies has already set about re-shaping the squad, with Harris his ninth summer signing.
