The teenager signed his first professional deal with Blues earlier this summer and lives just five minutes away from Leamington’s Your Co-op Community Stadium ground. Brakes boss, Scott Easterlow said: “Louie is a lad who I have known since he was a young boy, and with that I have always followed his path at Birmingham City closely. “Louie is a local lad, but make no mistake he’s here on ability. “He’s a big strong lad which will only help him at this level. “I know he’s pleased to be representing his home town club, and we are equally as pleased to have him here.”
