West Bromwich Albion have agreed a deal to loan Craig Gardner to Birmingham City, sources close to the Premier League club have told ESPN FC.
West Brom boss Tony Pulis said last week that Birmingham were interested in bringing Gardner back to St Andrew's during this month's transfer window.
Gardner, a boyhood Birmingham fan, played 52 times for the Blues between January 2010 and June 2011 after signing from rivals Aston Villa.
The 30-year-old has found himself down the pecking order at West Brom this season, starting just two Premier League games this season with another seven appearances off the bench.
