“Potential Transfer Saga: Connor Goldson’s Possible Move to Birmingham City”
“A potential move to Birmingham City this summer would meet many of the criteria that Rangers defender Connor Goldson is looking for, according to Roger Hannah. The English player has been linked with a departure from Rangers during this transfer window, with reports indicating that Birmingham City, backed by wealthy owners, are keen to sign him from Ibrox.
Despite typically being seen as a step down from the Premiership to League One, Hannah, the head of sport at the Scottish Sun, believes this transfer would benefit all parties involved. Speaking on Clyde 1 Superscoreboard, he noted that Goldson, who faced challenges in maintaining his starting position last season, may see Birmingham as an appealing option. Hannah pointed out that Goldson hails from the area around Birmingham, is in his 30s, and has a connection with Chris Davies, who knows him well from their encounters in Scottish football.
In summary, Hannah suggests that selling Goldson to Birmingham City could be a mutually beneficial move for both the player and the clubs involved.”
“Yet, Rangers must find a suitable replacement for Goldson if they decide to let him go this summer, and that would require them to secure a fair transfer fee. Birmingham City appears financially capable, but whether they are willing to meet the asking price remains uncertain.
Moving to Birmingham would bring Goldson closer to his hometown and potentially reduce the scrutiny he faced last season, during which he endured criticism from pundits and fans.”
“However, Goldson might also feel that his ambitions are set on playing at a higher level than League One. While the deal seems plausible with the right offer, there is still much groundwork to be completed.”
