Key Things to Know
  • James Ray argues Birmingham City should offload Scott Wright, Lee Buchanan, and Marvin Ducksch in the January transfer window.

  • Winger Scott Wright has played only one senior minute this season and needs a winter exit to gain playing time.
The Story in 60 Seconds

The72's James Ray argues that Birmingham City should look to trim their squad during the January transfer window to assist their promotion bid under manager Chris Davies. Ray proposes that winger Scott Wright, defender Lee Buchanan, and striker Marvin Ducksch should all be moved on to create space for new signings.

Wright has played just one minute of senior football this campaign, while Buchanan has fallen behind Alex Cochrane and Kristoffer Lund at left-back following a long-term knee injury, making a loan deal sensible. Ducksch has featured only as a substitute, and Ray suggests Birmingham City should consider selling him permanently.
