Birmingham need stability for Championship push as big Wrexham promotion question rises again

Firstly, they have a new manager in Chris Davies. He had previously been senior assistant coach to Ange Postecoglu at Tottenham and was also a long-time assistant to Brendan Rodgers, now making the step up to his own managerial role.

Then, some impressive signings. Two have come in goal with Hull’s former No1 Ryan Allsop, and Northern Ireland international Bailey Peacock-Farrell from Burnley, himself no stranger to EFL football.

Birmingham have also poached last season’s League One Golden Boot winner Alfie May from Charlton. He scored 23 goals for the Addicks, and the Blues will be hoping he can replicate that in the 2024/25 campaign.
