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
- James Beadle - Loan
- Kristoffer Lund - €2.50m
- Max Bird - £2.2m

One of the first transfer priorities for Birmingham was ensuring midfield enforcer Jhon Solis was tied down on a permanent basis after impressive loan spell from Girona in the second half of last season.
Despite interest from Leeds United and Brentford, the Blues secured the Colombian's services by exercising their £6m option to buy.
The Blues then bolstered their defensive line with the addition of experienced central defender Dael Fry following the expiration of his contract at Middlesbrough.
James Beadle returned to St Andrew's for a second loan from Brighton, while Luis Vazquez strengthened Davies' striking options in a £2.8m move from Anderlecht.
Birmingham were rocked earlier in the window by Kai Wagner's desire to return to Philadelphia just six months after his arrival, and the club have signed Kristoffer Lund as his replacement at left-back.
Max Bird became Birmingham's sixth summer signing as the attacking midfielder joined from Bristol City in a £2.2m deal.
