Birmingham City are looking to build a squad capable of promotion to the Premier League after finishing 10th in the 2025/26 Championship campaign.
Blues were amongst the most active clubs in the EFL in the 2025/26 summer transfer window, reaching double-figures in signings. In spite of the club's activity, their outlay barely surpassed £12m , signing a number of players on free transfers.
They've been nowhere near as engaged this window as they were last summer, indicating that Chris Davies is relatively satisfied with his squad after settling back into life in the Championship.
Birmingham have made signings however, and we take a look at all of their latest additions.
Every signing Birmingham City have made in the 2026/27 summer transfer window
- Jhon Solis - €7.50m
- Luis Vazquez - €3.50m
- Dael Fry - free transfer
- James Beadle - loan
- Kristoffer Lund - undisclosed fee
*Fees according to transfermarkt.co.uk
Jhon Solis became Birmingham's most expensive acquisition of the summer window when joining the West Midlands outfit in a deal worth a reported €7.50m.
The Colombian midfielder enjoyed the second half of the 2025/26 season on loan at St Andrew's -- making 17 Championship appearances -- and the club's decision to bring the 21-year-old back on a permanent basis has sparked excitement amongst Blues supporters.
Birmingham added to their centre forward department with the signing of Luis Vazquez, who joined from Anderlecht for a fee in the region of €3.50m.
The 25-year-old scored 18 goals in 116 appearances for the Belgian outfit, enjoying his best campaign in 2023/24 -- where he found the net on seven occasions in the top-flight.
Dael Fry joined the club on a free transfer in perhaps their shrewdest piece of business so far this window. The central defender boasts 272 games of Championship experience and joins the club off the back of an impressive season with Middlesbrough.
James Beadle's return to the club on a season-long loan was met with mixed responses after spending the 2025/26 term in between the sticks for Davies. He'll hope that he can win round the sceptical Blues supporters in his second temporary spell at St Andrew's.
Kristoffer Lund became Birmingham's fifth addition of the window on 30th July, signing from Italian side Palermo for an undisclosed fee.
Born in Denmark, Lund has made seven appearances for the United States national team, plying his trade primarily at left-back but occasionally in a more advanced left midfield role.
