Earlier today Birmingham confirmed that they had signed Arsenal duo Carl Jenkinson and Cohen Bramall on season-long loans.
Blue fans have been demanding signings after their poor performance against Burton on Friday, and they’ve now got two signings at once with two more signings expected later today.
Bramall was picked up by Arsenal in January after impressing for non-league outfit Hednesford Town. Since signing for the Gunners, Brammall has been training with the Under-23 team.
While Jenkinson started his career with Charlton Athletic. He signed for Arsenal in 2011, and he played fourteen times for the club in his first season. Jenkinson then spent time out on loan with West Ham, but it’s clear to see that the 25-year-old isn’t in Arsene Wenger’s plans.
Here’s how Birmingham fans reacted to the signings:

Arsenal always look after us. Get ’em both straight in the team. No more full back displays like that at Burton. 🙏 #BCFC https://t.co/GGYOaOvbTk

I’m convinced these 2 lads are here to play as WB’s. I think we will see another CB before the end of the window. #BCFC

Fans need to be patient on Bramall. He could be great for us, but it’s a risk throwing him straight in with no league experience #bcfc
