Story so far

The youngster spent time on the books at Fulham and Manchester City before linking up with the Seagulls in 2019.

He was handed his first-team debut in a Carabao Cup clash against Aston Villa a couple of seasons ago and has mainly been used in the Under-23s since his move to East Sussex.

Doncaster Rovers loan

Taylor was loaned out to Doncaster Rovers last term to get some experience under his belt and was a hit during his time in Yorkshire.

He was given the green light to leave Brighton in August 2020 and he rocked up at the Keepmoat Stadium as a bit of an unknown quantity.

However, he went on to make 48 appearances in all competitions for Rovers and chipped in with 11 goals from midfield.

Birmingham swooping in

Brighton have kept hold of Taylor for the past few months but are letting him leave again now to test himself in the Championship.

Birmingham are currently 18th in the league table and will be hoping he can help them lift away from danger.
