Birmingham team coach Martin O'Neill has announced that team striker Ashley Young has given verbal consent to move to his coached team.
Former Celtic manager is actively looking for a new striker, as Juan Pablo Angel and Milan Baros have lost form, and Chris Sutton is injured.
Watford had already agreed to sell the 21-year-old player to West Ham for £9.65 million, but the England U-21 international refused to move to Upton Park.
Tottenham also showed interest in acquiring the young player, offering Wayne Routledge and Calum Davenport as part of the deal, but the latter has already been sold to the mentioned West Ham team.
