Birmingham to honour legend Francis

Former Birmingham City forward Trevor Francis is to be added to the Walk of Stars on Birmingham's Broad Street. He became the clubs youngest debutant in 1970 and scored 119 goals in 280 league appearances for the club.

The star will be officially presented before the Championship club's home game against Nottingham Forest on 29 November.

The striker was the first English player to be transferred for £1m when he moved to Nottingham Forest in 1979.
