Career

He made his debut for Manchester City on 15 January 2014, coming on a substitute against Blackburn Rovers in an FA Cup third-round replay.[8]

On 28 January, Huws joined Football League Champisonhip club Birmingham City on an initial one-month youth loan.[9] He went straight into the starting eleven for the match at home to Derby County on 1 February, and his stoppage-time shot rebounded off the post for Federico Macheda's equaliser.[10]
