Birmingham City unlikely to sign Ibrahim Osman before transfer deadline

Birmingham City manager Chris Davies expressed doubt about re-signing forward Ibrahim Osman from Brighton, citing Osman's strong performance in the previous season. Birmingham has already signed five players this summer and continues to look for reinforcements as the transfer window approaches its closing. Davies mentioned the need to strengthen the squad with multiple scoring threats in the coming weeks. Osman's success at Brighton and their participation in the Conference League have complicated potential negotiations for his return.
