Cardiff City midfielder Andy Rinomhota has caught the attention of League One club Birmingham City. Journalist Darren Witcoop reported earlier this week that Rinomhota is attracting interest from multiple clubs, including the Blues. He also mentioned that Rinomhota is expected to leave Cardiff City during this transfer window, with Birmingham actively considering a deal as they search for a defensive midfielder.
Rinomhota’s future at Cardiff appears uncertain. Despite a successful first season, he fell out of favor under manager Erol Bulut and was loaned to Rotherham United for the second half of the last campaign. With one year left on his contract, Rinomhota must decide where he wants to continue his career. Although Birmingham is now in League One, a move could be highly beneficial for him.
Birmingham City, relegated to League One last season, are determined to bounce back under new ownership. The club is using this opportunity to rebuild and prepare a competitive squad for the division. This summer has been eventful, with Birmingham making five new signings: Emil Hansson, Alfie May, Ryan Allsop, Bailey Peacock-Farrell, and Alex Cochrane. They are also linked with Phil Neumann from Hannover 96 and Louie Barry from Aston Villa.
Birmingham’s ambition in the transfer market and the leadership of their exciting manager, Chris Davies, present an appealing project for Rinomhota to consider.
