Ghanaian international midfielder, Quincy Owusu-Abeyie has been set free by English Championship side, Birmingham after the club refused to pay the US$10 million requested by his Russian employers Spartak Moscow for a permanent deal.
Manager of Birmingham, Alex McLeish confirmed that the player would not be staying
"His deal was an expensive one for just one player and we will now look to use the money to bring in new faces. "We thank Quincy for his efforts and wish him well for the future." He added
Quincy, 22, joined the English outfit last summer on a six months loan deal, and was tipped to remain at the club side by several soccer pundits. This would however come as a blow to the player’s aspiration to return to the Premiership where he once played with London club, Arsenal.
The fleet-footed winger has however played on 13 times for the Blues, netting only three goals.
