Blues are expecting the transfer market to build to a crescendo of activity the closer the summer deadline approaches.

It has been a ‘slow’ window so far, for the club and others, with one or two exceptions.

Blues do not have to surpass 20+ for ins and outs this year, as we have routinely seen, because Chris Davies squad has an element of continuity about it.

And so far, five players have come in – two of whom were on loan last season – and two have exited, plus Tommy Doyle, Ibrahim Osman and Jonathan Panzo.
