Football Update: Premier League Transfer Rumours- Birmingham City and Blackburn Rovers
Birmingham City
Birmingham City manager Alex McLeish looks to use his Scottish contacts to stop a move for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kenny-Miller-c20631. McLeish would want the Scottish striker to join him at Birmingham, having worked with him during his tenure at Celtic.
Miller would be the perfect player to answer Birmingham’s lack of fire power. The 31 year old striker has made a huge impact with Glasgow http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314 this season, where he has scored 22 times in 24 appearances. The player is in the best form of his career, having
scored 55 times in 107 appearances for the Rangers.
Miller is not new to the premier league as the player has spent 5 years with Wolverhampton Wanderers. The player has scored 63 times in his 193 appearances with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wolves-c40952 and would take no time to adjust to the pace of the premier league.
Birmingham’s summer signing Nikola Zigic has failed to make an impact since his arrival and despite the side playing magnificently, they lack the finishing ability. McLeish is respected and known in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Scotland-c756 and is on the lookout for the player. Miller,
however, has been linked to a move to Juventus and AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603.
It is believed that Sebastien Larsson is looking for a move to Newcastle United. The former Arsenal man would be out of contract by the end of the current season and Birmingham are highly unlikely to offer him a new contract. McLeish would want to milk some
money from him during this transfer window or risk losing him on a free transfer. Newcastle United would love to have a player like Larsson, who has showed a lot of composure and passing range in his time with Birmingham.
Blackburn http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rovers-c40385
Blackburn have re-signed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roque-Santa-Cruz-c31778, with Man City dishing out most of Mark Hughes’s signings. Also, Blackburn defender Michel Solgado has advised the club owners to concentrate on bringing in young players rather than signing older has-beens. Blackburn
were interested in signing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldinho-c31733, who are beyond their prime forms. Solgado believes that Blackburn should bring in young players, who offer pace and flair to the game and move on to become footballing greats.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is also willing to sign club http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chris-c9006 Samba by offering one of his young players on loan. Samba expressed his discontent with the club owners following the sacking of manager Sam Allardyce and was stripped of the Captain’s
duty in the coming fixture. Samba then expressed his desire to leave Blackburn altogether. The 26 year old is a strong centre back, who is good in the air as well as man marking. The player would resolve Arsenal’s centre back issues for good as Samba is injury
free.
