Birmingham City expecting cash influx as Crystal Palace lodge first bid
Birmingham City are set for a transfer budget boost as Crystal Palace are eyeing a move for a Championship ace.
Crystal Palace are reportedly planning a second bid for Sunderland midfielder Jobe Bellingham in a deal that could earn Birmingham City millions.
The Blues academy graduate has seriously impressed since joining the Black Cats for around £5 million last June, with seven goals and one assist in 45 Sky Bet Championship appearances. This form, as well as the vast potential on offer, has gained the interest of an array of top-tier teams.
Transfer news journalist Fabrizio Romano reports Palace are actively working on a deal to sign Bellingham. The 18-year-old is said to be high up on Oliver Glasner’s list of attacking midfield targets amid Eagles forward Michael Olise’s imminent £50 million departure to Bayern Munich.
