The boss os Birmingham City, Alex McLeish, would really like to take a risk on Newcastle United midfielder, Joey Barton.
The Manchester City star who has no more than 26 years old, was linked with a season-long loan switch to St Andrew’s.
Birmingham City has a signing controversial characters history and it is also trying to reform these characters. Through them are Jermaine Pennant and Lee Bowyer.
Joey Barton has accepted not only once, but twice on charges of violence and he received 24 weeks imprisonment for assaulting and affray. It all started to an incident that took place outside, at the restaurant of McDonald from Liverpool City.
Last year in July he has got 4 months suspended sentence after he recognized that he had assaulted Manchester City team as long as a training ground dispute took place.
In total, Joey earns around 104,000 dollars per week at St James’ Park while Newcastle United is trying hardly to get him off their wage bill.
