Birmingham City are being urged to sign Anis Mehmeti from Ipswich Town as the transfer window nears its close. With the Blues currently sitting 15th in the Championship, 1 point behind leaders QPR, the need for a creative spark in the 'number 10' position is clear. Anis Mehmeti, who has 26 goals and 9 assists in 136 appearances for Bristol City, could be the answer to Birmingham City's prayers.
What happened?
Birmingham City fan pundit Jason Moore believes that the Blues should be all over Anis Mehmeti, who has become one of the division's hottest properties. Moore told Football League World, "One million%, that's the signing Blues should be after. If he's available in the 'number 10' position, Blues should be all over that."
Why it matters for Birmingham City
Birmingham City have been struggling to find a consistent creative force in the 'number 10' position, with Jay Stansfield and Marvin Ducksch often being rotated. However, with Anis Mehmeti's experience in the Championship, the Blues could be onto a winner. Mehmeti has 26 goals and 9 assists in 136 appearances for Bristol City, and his signing could be a valuable asset for the Blues.
What comes next?
With the transfer window nearing its close, Birmingham City will need to act fast if they are to sign Anis Mehmeti. The Blues will be hoping to build on a mixed campaign in last season's Championship, and the signing of Mehmeti could be a key factor in their success. League standing: 15th in Championship, 1 pts, 0W-1D-0L from 1 games, recent form D.
