Birmingham forced to wait to sign striker

Birmingham's plans to sign Argentine striker Damian Zamorano have been put on hold by City's transfer embargo.

Atletico Union forward Zamorano, 19, impressed on a recent secret three-week trial at Championship City.

The forward scored several goals in friendlies and reserve games as the club kept his identity under wraps.

Blues boss Chris Hughton hoped to sign him but Blues were banned from buying players by the Football League as their financial accounts are delayed.

Hughton still has his eye on Zamorano for a summer move if Brum are promoted however.
