Galway United forward Jay O'Shea looks set to join English Premier League side Birmingham City after the two clubs agreed a fee for the 20-year-old.

Birmingham have confirmed that the player will now travel to St Andrews to undergo a medical and discuss personal terms.

O'Shea plied his trade with Home Farm and Bray Wanderers before signing for Galway Utd in December 2007. He has been capped three times at Under 21 level for the Republic of Ireland following impressive displays in helping the western club avoid relegation and became club captain before the start of the current campaign.
