Family ask for privacy as Birmingham winger Jordan Graham hospitalised

Former Birmingham City winger Jordan Graham, 31, is receiving specialist treatment in hospital after a serious road‑traffic accident earlier this month, the Professional Footballers’ Association confirmed on behalf of his family. The incident occurred while he was travelling, and he remains under medical care as his loved ones await further updates.
