Birmingham ready to make a permanent offer for the attacker at 6 caps

While the last weeks in Birmingham City focused on the good start of the championship return, this week’s PFA Awards have served as a celebration evening for their promotion of Ligue 1.

Seven of the teams last season were appointed to the Ligue 1 team of the PFA of the year 2025 after their record season of 111 points.

In addition to the season team, Tomoki Iwata and Jay Stansfield were pre -selected for the player of the year PFA League 1, with the new QPR striker, Richard Kone, winning the prize.

Birmingham had built a team in League One who was able to participate in the championship, and they continued to add to it this summer. Their next target seems to be a young premier league attacker, but the blues are faced with competition from one of the parties that have been promoted with them.

Birmingham and Wrexham with curves in the breed for Koumas

Birmingham City is one of the pole position teams to sign the young Liverpool Lewis Koumas striker. The 19 -year -old spent last season last season playing championship football during his loan to Stoke City and is expected to leave the club permanently before the transfer date.

This report comes from Liverpool Echo, who said that Koumas had received significant attention from the championship this summer, with Norwich City, Preston North End, Sheffield United and Hull City in terms of the player’s situation. However, the biggest rivals in Birmingham for this transfer will be Wrexham, who are the other teams that would have “directed the pursuit” for Koumas.

The young attacker will cost a nice penny, because the Reds see Koumas as more developed than Bobby Clark when he joined RB Salzburg for 10 million pounds sterling last year. The Koumas family has links with the Metropolitan region of Birmingham, while his father, Jason Koumas, played for West Bromwich Albion during the first years of Lewis’ life.

Why so many teams are interested in the Koumas

At 19, Koumas already attracts a lot of attention. Not only are there the interested championship evenings, but he also received recognition at the national level, after having represented the Welsh national team six times.

During his season spent in the championship with Stoke, Koumas was one of the best players in a number of attack measures. Koumas signed up in the 25% of top players for shots and shots on the target, which means not only that he often pulls, but when he shoots, it’s precise.

Although he has underperform his XG of just over two goals, Koumas is still only a teenager and calm on the ball and precision with his shots will develop more as he matures.

In addition to his impressive attack attributes, which is unique about Koumas, is his ability to defend himself. The teenager ranked 15% of the upper wingers for the plated plated and the 20% of the wingers for the possession won in the last third of the land. Its ability to win the ball at the top of the field can often surprise the opposition by surprise, leading to important attack opportunities.

Based on his current skills, it would not be surprising that Liverpool requires a figure similar to what they have done for Clark, but given its age and potential future development, it could be a valid long -term transfer.
