Birmingham City Nears Striker Deal for Young Sensation

Birmingham City is reportedly nearing an agreement with Swedish club Djurgardens for the transfer of 21-year-old Danish striker August Priske. Priske is understood to be ready to make the move to England this month, with personal terms largely agreed.

Last season, Priske enjoyed a stellar campaign in Sweden's top flight, scoring an impressive 23 goals and contributing three assists. This form has attracted interest from several European clubs, including Lille and Besiktas, but Birmingham City appears to be in the strongest position to secure his signature.

The signing of Priske would represent another significant investment by the club's hierarchy as they aim for promotion to the Premier League. This follows previous substantial outlays on players like Jay Stansfield and Paik Seung-ho last season, and more recent additions such as Kai Wagner and Jhon Solis.
