Birmingham City are willing to sell Danish striker Nicolai Brock-Madsen.
Harry Redknapp is looking to add new faces to his senior striking trio of Che Adams, Lukas Jutkiewicz and Clayton Donaldson, and therefore Brock-Madsen is exploring his options elsewhere.
The striker has returned to pre-season training and is willing to impress his manager, but it seems the Blues are ready to listen to offers – both loan or permanent.
Brock-Madsen joined the Blues for around £500,000 in 2015. The 24-year-old has two years remaining in his contract at St Andrew’s, but the club is unlikely to recoup the money spent on him.

Should Sunderland make a move for him?
Attacking department is one area where Simon Grayson needs to bring players, having lost Jermain Defoe and Fabio Borini.
The Black Cats are financially not in a strong position to spend on big players. They have to be smart in their signings, and Brock-Madsen would represent a smart signing.
The player has scored seven times in 23 appearances during a season-long loan spell with Dutch club PEC Zwolle last season, and there’s no reason to believe why he can’t deliver for the Black Cats.
Given his age, talent, and transfer fee, Sunderland should at least make a move for the 6ft 3in striker.
