Tom Brady’s Birmingham City side have made a record-breaking bid of around £10m ($13m) for Fulham striker Jay Stansfield.
Per BBC Sport, Fulham have rejected a £10m bid for Stansfield from Birmingham.
The 21-year-old was on loan at St Andrews last season and scored 13 goals, leading the club to make a huge offer to bring him back.
Had the bid been accepted, Stansfield would have become the division’s all-time record signing, eclipsing the £4m Birmingham spent on Christoph Klarer and Willum Willumsson earlier this summer.
Birmingham were relegated from the Championship last season but have invested heavily as they aim to bounce back at the first time of asking.
They have already spent £14m ($18m) this summer, adding Emil Hansson, Sagan Tosu, Ayumu Yokoyama, Alex Cochrane and Lyndon Dykes to Klarer and Willumsson.
Stansfield is an England U21 international with three caps to his name.
During his time at Fulham, he has made 10 first-team appearances, scoring twice.
He also scored nine goals for Exeter City during a loan spell at the club.
