Birmingham City are expected to splash the cash upon their return to the Championship, with their American investors targeting back-to-back promotions.
Birmingham City have completed the eye-catching signing of Kyogo Furuhashi from Rennes, with the Japan forward returning to football in the British Isles just six months after a £10 million move to Ligue 1. The ex-Celtic star joins the Tom Brady-backed Blues on a three-year deal as their ambitious summer recruitment drive continues to prepare for the Championship.
Per a new report from The Sun, Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight could involve himself in Birmingham City's plans to build a sparkling new stadium in the middle of the city. The Championship club want to build a 62,000-seater ground, which could cost in excess of £3 billion ($4bn), under the stewardship of NFL legend Tom Brady.
