Birmingham City might pursue a new striker, a central midfielder, and a centre-back before the transfer window closes, according to Birmingham Live.
This transfer window has been exceptional for Birmingham City, who have invested significantly to assemble a team with promotion aspirations. The Blues’ recent relegation caused a major setback to their ambitious plans, but they appear undeterred. Their substantial spending this summer reflects their determination to quickly return to the Championship.
Despite their significant spending and several major signings earlier this summer, Birmingham City are not expected to slow down their transfer activity. According to Birmingham Live, the club is considering moves for three additional players in key positions before the window closes.
A new striker is on the agenda, even with the recent acquisition of Alfie May. Additionally, with Jordan James transferring to French side Stade Rennais, a spot has opened up in central midfield. The club is also likely to target a fourth centre-back to provide extra cover and competition.
Filling these remaining gaps would cap off an already eventful summer for Birmingham City.
Chris Davies’ new look squad
It’s clear that John Davies has received substantial support in his first transfer window at Birmingham City.
The Blues’ squad required significant rebuilding, and the former Tottenham Hotspur assistant manager has been given several new players, including some acquired for substantial fees. This backing underscores the club’s commitment to strengthening the team under his leadership.
Christoph Klarer and Willum Thor Willumsson have been the most significant investments so far for Birmingham City, with Emil Hansson, Alex Cochrane, and Alfie May also commanding healthy fees. Other notable permanent signings include Ayumu Yokohama, Marc Leonard, Bailey Peacock-Farrell, and Ryan Allsop, while Alfons Sampsted and Luke Harris have joined on loan.
After a disappointing draw against Reading on the opening day, Birmingham City secured a 3-2 victory over Wycombe Wanderers last weekend. Despite this win, the team will be looking for more convincing performances as they aim to build on their unbeaten start across all competitions.
With the transfer window closing at 11pm on August 30th, Davies and Birmingham City are expected to remain active. The club is targeting a striker, a central midfielder, and a centre-back, making for a potentially busy end to the summer window.
