The Birmingham City star is set for a top-flight move

Bacuna started his career at Dutch side FC Groningen before moving to then-Premier League side Huddersfield Town in 2018. Despite the Terriers’ relegation, the 26-year-old stayed on for two more years, making over 100 appearances in all competitions in this process. Then came a Scottish move, but Bacuna only stayed at Rangers for six months and the Curacao international then joined Birmingham for an undisclosed fee in January 2022. Bacuna has since made 105 league appearances for the Blues, netting 13 times .

However, it’s no surprise to see the midfielder move on to pastures new this summer after being relegated to England’s third tier. With just one year left on his contract with the club, it’s a good time to land a fee for the player, who is simply too good to play in England’s third tier. Selling him will almost certainly help their transfer funds, especially given that the club have not been afraid to splash the cash so far this window.

Bacuna will be the 13th player to leave St Andrew’s following their relegation to the third tier. The Blues have been active in the transfer window so far, with the likes of last season’s top goalscorer Alfie May, goalkeepers Bailey Peacock-Farrell and Ryan Allsopp, as well as exciting Swedish winger Emil Hanson all joining the Blues this term. summer as it looks. for an immediate return to the championship.
