Birmingham have completed their club record capture of Christian Benitez from Mexican side Santos Laguna.
A fee rising to £9m for the Ecuadorian striker was agreed early in June, but the deal was held up after the medical indicated a problem with his knee.
However, the 23-year-old has now signed for around £8m and he said: “It is the right time for me to make this move.”
