Birmingham eyeing move for Buckley

Championship outfit Birmingham City are reportedly looking to swoop for out of favour Sunderland winger Will Buckley as the Blues look to replace the recently-departed Demarai Gray.

Buckley has found chances hard to come by at the Stadium of Light this season and a move away from the club appears to be the only viable option for the former Brighton man.

Whether Birmingham manager Gary Rowett is keen on a loan deal or a permanent deal for the 26-year-old, however, it is no secret that the Blues are looking to sign a right-sided midfielder after Demarai Gray joined Leicester earlier this week.

Buckley has managed to start just ten goals for Sunderland since his arrival, finding himself even further down the pecking order under manager Sam Allardyce at the club.

However, Birmingham are not the only Championship club looking to add to their squad with Buckley this January, with fellow hopefuls Nottingham Forest also taking an interest in the winger.
