Portsmouth seal late swoop for Birmingham winger Solomon-Otabor
The 23-year-old winger was signed on loan with 40 minutes of the deadline to spare, taking the number of new faces at Fratton Park this month to six.
Solomon-Otabor had been a long-time target of the Blues, but any potential deal appeared to have fallen through at the start of the week.
However, it was resurrected late tonight to seal a capture.
