“I AM LEAVING”: Tony Mowbray announced that he is leaving  Birmingham City today another significant issue in the team…..

Following Birmingham City’s relegation from the Championship, there will likely be a number of players who depart St Andrew’s this summer.

Relegation to the third tier gives Birmingham the perfect chance to overhaul their squad, and bring in some young, hungry players who can be regulars in the starting XI for years to come.

However, they’ll still want to keep some experience and quality around, and one of these players is Krystian Bielik.

The Polish international joined the club in the summer of 2022 following Derby County’s relegation, and he’s contracted to the club until 2026, meaning Birmingham would want a decent fee if he was to leave this summer.

Being a Polish international, and having moved from a relegated club previously, Bielik will presumably want to play at a higher level of football than League One, and it remains to be seen if he’ll stay at St Andrew’s this summer.

Given that Krystian Bielik is an experienced Championship player with experience on the international stage, Birmingham City won’t be short of suitors this summer from the Championship and abroad.

The ex-Arsenal youngster has 11 caps for his country to his name, and given that Poland are a competitive international side that qualify for major tournaments, you’d have thought that playing in League One would do his international ambitions some harm.

However, as noted by our Birmingham City fan pundit, he’s not been selected by Poland recently anyway, but surely a move away from St Andrew’s would benefit his international ambitions.

Given the fact he has two years left on his deal with Birmingham, they won’t be willing to offload him for cheap, and any club would have to pay a substantial transfer fee.

This could be a good move for all parties, as that money could be reinvested into Birmingham’s squad ahead of League One, and it would allow Bielik a fresh start next season elsewhere.
