AFC Wimbledon complete loan deal for Birmingham City forward Sam Cosgrove

AFC Wimbledon have signed Sam Cosgrove on loan for the remainder of the season from Birmingham City.
Cosgrove spent the first half of the season at Shrewsbury Town.
Dons head coach Mark Robinson has been in the market for a striker since top scorer Ollie Palmer joined Wrexham for £300,000 last week.
Cosgrove told Wimbledon’s official website: “It’s been a bit of a hectic day. I woke up this morning in my flat in Birmingham, I didn’t know where I was going to be come six o’clock.

“Thankfully we got it over the line and I’m a Wimbledon player for the rest of the season. I first heard the club were interested in me a couple of days ago. Straight away it was something that appealed to me.

“We’ve been working on things and nothing in football is ever simple, but I’m here now. The meeting went really well with Mark Robinson, and I spoke with the gaffer last night as well.

“He gave me a talk about the team, the club, and the philosophy behind it. His words resonated with me. It sounds a really good club and I know the history behind it. It’s such a fan-based club and everyone’s really part of a community. It’s something I can get behind and hopefully be successful for.”
