Birmingham City has issued a statement confirming that Tony Mowbray, the team’s manager, will be taking a leave of absence for approximately six to eight weeks due to an undisclosed illness.
Mowbray, who took charge of the club in January after Wayne Rooney’s departure, will be temporarily stepping away from his managerial duties as he focuses on his health.
The severity and nature of Mowbray’s condition have not been disclosed at this time, but the intention is for him to return to his role later in the season.
In response to this decision, Mowbray expressed his gratitude for the support he and his family have received from the club and requested privacy during this period.
Fans of Birmingham City, as well as the wider football community, will undoubtedly send their well wishes to Mowbray as he undergoes treatment and recuperation.
