The brother of missing Birmingham City fan Paul Pike issued a 'please come home' message.

Paul, 18, was described by Andrew Fuller as a 'massive fan' of Warwickshire Bears, especially all-rounder Chris Woakes and a 'super fan' of WWE.

Andrew, 38, was speaking in Derby alongside a search party as they visited riverbanks to find his younger brother.

Paul had visited Derby for the away game and was last seen outside Pride Park Stadium at 12.43pm on March 21.

While his brother has been missing since last week, Andrew thanked the 'love and support' shown by Birmingham City and Derby County fans.

Buying Paul a ticket for the upcoming match away at Hull (April 18), Andrew urged his brother to 'please come home'.

Speaking to BirminghamLive, he said: "We're just worried and want him back.

"Paul's still has the cricket season to look forward to, and I have bought him tickets for our next away day at Hull.

"He's a lovely 18-year-old to hang around, and my brother's the perfect best mate for anyone.

"The love and support shown by Birmingham City and Derby fans has surpassed any feelings I can describe.

"Today (March 26) is the second time I've been to Derby, but I've been all over the place and we constantly have family members looking.

"Most of the games I'm with him, it's just I wasn't at this particular one. I think this match was Paul's first one without me or his mom.

"If you're reading this, Paul, please come home. Everyone is concerned and wants you back."

Derbyshire Constabulary previously said: "Anyone who has seen him (Pike), or has any information on his whereabouts, is asked to contact us using any of the below methods, quoting the reference 1095 of 24 March:"
