(Reuters) - Birmingham City have appointed Gary Rowett as interim manager for the remaining eight games of the season as current boss Tony Mowbray takes medical leave, the Championship club said on Tuesday.

Mowbray temporarily stepped away from the job in February to receive treatment for an unnamed illness and will take a formal medical leave of absence until the start of the 2024-25 pre-season, Birmingham said.
