Birmingham City target Hyun-jun Yang is waiting in Glasgow to seal a move to St. Andrew’s with a £3m+ deal in place, as per Anthony Joseph.
Birmingham City have had one of the Championship’s highest profile summer transfer windows. BCFC have spent big on some notable players, and with deadline day upon us, they’re not done yet.
The Blues still want a left-back and another attacker as we head into the final stages of the window, while fringe players could move on from St. Andrew’s too.

Among the players recently linked with a move to the Second City has been Celtic’s South Korean forward Hyun-jun Yang, and Sky Sports’ Anthony Joseph has issued a new update on the saga.
Writing on X, Joseph has said that Yang is just waiting on Celtic to give him the green light to travel down to complete his move to Birmingham City.

A move worth £3m plus add-ons is in place to take him to BCFC, all that is required now is the green light for him to make the switch. Then, the relevant medical and contractual formalities can be ironed out and the move can be completed ahead of the 7pm deadline day cut off.
Another versatile forward at Birmingham City?
Birmingham City boss Chris Davies will pride himself on the flexibility and versatility he boasts within his attacking ranks, and Yang would certainly add to that.
Though primarily a winger, he has been used centrally as a striker before too. He specialises on the right but can operate on the left as well, cutting in onto his stronger foot.

Yang would provide Davies with the wide depth he requires. It is seen as one of the finishing touches to be put on his talented BCFC squad as the final hours of the window tick away.

Exits inevitable with deadline day deals lined up at Birmingham City
With a new attacker in Yang and a left-back signing wanted, it could be a busy deadline day for Birmingham City. That is especially given the case given some of the players who could benefit from exits too.
It has been reported that Derby County will try to strike a permanent deal with BCFC for the transfer of loan man Dion Sanderson.
Additionally, Davies has confirmed that the likes of Alfie Chang and George Hall will be allowed to find opportunities elsewhere.
