before being given a chance at Wigan.
Powell
joined Birmingham in 2010 after being scouted in Sunday League football.
He
rose up through the youth ranks and was a regular for the under-18 side.
The
teenager wasn’t able to make the step up into the Blues’ first-team though and
they made the decision to part company with him at the end of the 2019/20
season. |
