Birmingham City have appointed Garry Monk as their fifth manager in 15 months on a three-and-a-half-year contract, the English Championship (second tier) club said on Sunday.
The 38-year-old Monk, former manager of Swansea City, Leeds United and Middlesbrough, replaced Steve Cotterill who was sacked on Saturday after Birmingham's 2-1 loss at Nottingham Forest which left them 22nd in the 24-team standings.
"The club is delighted to have secured the services of one of the game's brightest young managers," Birmingham said in a statement.
