Chong told BluesTV: “I am excited to be back. Especially after last season, I have always felt Birmingham City had been my second home.
“It’s nice because I came in, I know everyone already. Seeing familiar faces.
“Everyone at the club, the staff, the players and the fans – everyone made me feel so welcome, a family club.
“I feel ready to go. I am very excited to get going. It’s great to be back.”
