Sarkic, 24, spent last season on loan with League One side Shrewsbury Town, playing 29 times, although he missed two months with a hamstring injury. He has signed a season-long loan to cover for first-choice keeper Neil Etheridge, who contracted Covid-19. Sarkic, who joined Wolves on a three-year deal from Aston Villa last summer, has played in all Blues' pre-season games. He becomes Blues' fifth loan signing of the window, which means they have reached their match day capacity.
