Birmingham City is back in English Football’s second tier and is in consultation to sign a striker who can help bid another promotion, according to the report.
Birmingham City prepares for life in the championship
Bruce was glorified in League One last season and looks ready to continue his ambitious project at St. Andrews after Jeremy Dale stepped into the role tentatively in January and after Jeremy Dale was appointed as new CEO.
Birmingham Chairman Tom Wagner spoke after he permanently hired Dale.
“The club has made great strides under his leadership over the last few months and we are excited about his continued leadership as we focus on implementing long-term strategies and building a strong foundation for the future.”
While things are swimming off the pitch, Birmingham is hoping for new additions, and Demarai Gray is trapped in a return to his old stomping ground nine years after the West Midlands.
Peterborough United’s Kwamepok is also linked to the move to the Blues, but it appears likely that Chris Davis’s signature will be a signing, as Nottingham Forest’s Louis O’Brien will be tooling up for a season that exceeds expectations.

Birmingham discusses to sign Kyogo Furuhashi
France reports that Birmingham is in discussions to sign Rennes striker Kyoto uruhashi, despite Japan International, which will only participate in League One outfit in January.
It is also said that the German club is monitoring his situation after only appearing on his new side six times in the second half of the last campaign he didn’t score.

Fulhashi, a £47,000-a-week earner, became famous for European football at Celtic and registered 85 goals in 165 matches for the Scottish Giants before moving to Rennes.
However, he is now free to leave Habib Bay’s side after not making a lasting impact, and now he finds himself tied to his former St. Andrews teammate Iwatajima.
Previously labelled “glorious striker” by John Hartson, uruhashi was not a prolific force in front of his recent goals. Still, if Birmingham can land someone in his caliber, there will be every opportunity to get into the picture to secure a promotion.
