West Ham United can confirm that Emmanuel Longelo has completed a permanent move to EFL Championship side Birmingham City.
Longelo initially joined the Blues on loan at the start of the 2022/23 season and has made 16 showings in all competitions in the first half of the campaign, scoring once.
The 22-year-old has now made his switch to St Andrew’s permanent and will continue to work under John Eustace as Birmingham seek to climb the Championship table.
The Academy of Football graduate made two first team appearances for West Ham, earning his debut against Hull City in the Carabao Cup third round in September 2020, while also featuring in the UEFA Europa League Group H defeat by GNK Dinamo Zagreb at London Stadium in December 2021.
Everyone at West Ham thanks Manny for his contributions during his time in Claret and Blue and wishes him every success in his future career.
