The summer window is in full swing now, and we\u2019ve gathered all the top stories from the second tier in our latest Championship transfer round-up for the weekend.<\/strong><\/p>\n

While the first, very short transfer window was fairly uneventful for most clubs, teams across the Championship<\/a> have really started to do business now.<\/p>\n

Funnily enough, most of the headlines recently are surrounding Sheffield Wednesday<\/a>, who may not be able to sign players but are looking at selling top talents like Pierce Charles<\/a> and Djeidi Gassama.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, teams are making big moves and showing real intent for the season ahead. In particular, the likes of Birmingham City<\/a> and Norwich City<\/a> are really starting to splash out.<\/p>\n

Find out all about those deals and the biggest rumours in our latest Championship transfer round-up.<\/p>\n

One of the biggest stories in the Championship when it comes to transfers is around the future of Tyrhys Dolan. The Blackburn Rovers<\/a> ace is now out of contract and is one of the most coveted free agents in the second tier<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s been linked to Norwich, Derby County, and Middlesbrough among many others. While the winger is thought to prefer a move to the Premier League or abroad, there is a chance he stays in the Championship.<\/p>\n

Now, Bristol City have made an approach for Dolan<\/a>. It\u2019ll be tough to land the 23-year-old given his ambition, though, and we suspect this won\u2019t be the last time he features in our Championship transfer round-up this summer.<\/p>\n

West Brom sign Erling Haaland 2.0<\/p>\n

The bad news for West Brom is that Mikey Johnston is set to join Flamengo<\/a> in Brazil, in a deal worth around \u00a35m.<\/p>\n

However, Ryan Mason does have a new player coming in. Aune Heggebo has joined the Baggies from SK Brann<\/a> in a reported \u00a34.7m transfer.<\/p>\n

The striker has been described as a combination of Erling Haaland and Steven Gerrard, and comes with a lot of promise after shining in the Norwegian league.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s getting harder and harder to keep Birmingham City out of our regular Championship transfer round-up. The truth is, the Blues have been very busy, and their latest signing is a real coup.<\/p>\n

Many expect Kyogo Furuhashi to guide Birmingham to glory<\/a> with his goals this season. That all depends on the service he gets, though he\u2019s unlikely to struggle there given the players around him.<\/p>\n

After the signing of Bright Osayi-Samuel<\/a> and Demarai Gray\u2019s return, the Blues have plenty of service out wide. Are we looking at the next champions of the second tier? Quite possibly.<\/p>\n

Norwich City close in on \u00a312m star<\/p>\n

Most Norwich fans have come to terms with the fact Borja Sainz is leaving<\/a>. The fact he may bring in \u00a313m helps soften the blow in that regard, too.<\/p>\n

But, given their business so far this summer, we know Norwich will reinvest that money wisely. By the sounds of it, \u00a312m has been earmarked for Mathias Kvistgaarden.<\/p>\n

An agreement with Kvistgaarden is thought to be close<\/a>, despite links to the likes of West Ham and Celtic. The striker has been likened to Wayne Rooney and Henrik Larsson, which will surely get tongues wagging at Carrow Road.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The summer window is in full swing now, and we\u2019ve gathered all the top stories from the second…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":244572,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7820],"tags":[855,12905,18228,748,9030,393,4884,29276,16,15,16198],"class_list":{"0":"post-244571","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-birmingham","8":"tag-birmingham","9":"tag-birmingham-city","10":"tag-bristol-city","11":"tag-britain","12":"tag-championship","13":"tag-england","14":"tag-great-britain","15":"tag-norwich-city","16":"tag-uk","17":"tag-united-kingdom","18":"tag-west-brom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114810508418647139","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=244571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244571\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/244572"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=244571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=244571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=244571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
