Jude Bellingham 2.0? 4 Birmingham City players who could be the next big stars to emerge
Birmingham City have produced some excellent youngsters in recent years.
Jude Bellingham is the most famous face of the lot, having played for Blues’ first team before being sold to Borussia Dortmund for a fee believed to be in the region of £25m.
That money helped the Midlands side to keep themselves afloat and on the right side of financial rules.
And they benefitted financially from the England international once again during the summer, with Birmingham’s sell-on clause allowing them to raise a sizeable amount from his move from Dortmund to Spanish giants Real Madrid.
That was probably crucial in allowing the club to bring in so many permanent additions during the summer – and Bellingham’s younger brother Jobe also raised some funds for the club after sealing his switch to Sunderland.
You would back Blues to continue producing some excellent young players in the coming years and we take a look at four Birmingham youngsters who could emerge as big stars in the future.
