Birmingham are reportedly battling out with SPL giants Celtic in the race to sign former Arsenal midfielder Amaury Bischoff.
The 22-year-old is a free agent after being released by the Gunners, mainly due to a number of injury problems at the Emirates Stadium.
Celtic's former West Brom boss Tony Mowbray is looking to revamp his squad after taking over from Gordon Strachan, but the Birmingham Express and Star claims Blues manager Alex McLeish also wants the Portugal Under-21 international.
McLeish has already added Scott Dann, Roger Johnson, Giovanny Espinoza, Christian Benitez and Joe Hart to his squad, after Birmingham's return to the top flight, and more signings look set to follow.
