interested in Robinson<\/a> earlier in the window, though a deal appeared to fade away as Doyle arrived.<\/p>\n<p>Robinson, who is out of contract in 2026, appeared to still be on the radar, but he may instead join Birmingham City.<\/p>\n<p>Reporter Pete O\u2019Rourke claims that Birmingham City are now attempting to rush through a late deal for Robinson.<\/p>\n<p>The Blues are already targeting Will Smallbone, another player on Wrexham\u2019s wish list, but are now looking to land Robinson as well.<\/p>\n<p>The Sheffield United captain can play at centre-back or left-back and can offer fine versatility, alongside Championship experience, in the heart of the Birmingham back line.<\/p>\n<p>Time is ticking, though, and with the deadline already passed, Birmingham must have already submitted documents to the EFL ahead of a potential move.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conor Coady misses out on Jack Robinson reunion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One man who would have been delighted to see Robinson arrive at Wrexham is Conor Coady.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrexhaminsider.com\/transfer-news\/conor-coady-could-now-reunite-with-former-liverpool-youth-teammate-at-wrexham\/\" target=\"_blank\"

the 2014-15 season, and could have been key men in Parkinson\u2019s back three.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, Robinson could end up joining Birmingham to play a part in their journey alongside Tom Brady, rather than joining the Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds project at Wrexham.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wrexham are closing in on another defensive addition as Phil Parkinson brings his
