After a terrible 2023–24 season that saw them relegated from the Championship, Birmingham City will play in League One the following season.

The Championship has relegated Birmingham City following a disappointing season. Their aspirational future goals have taken a significant step back, and it will undoubtedly result in a busy summer window.

Although there will be a need for new hires, a number of players should anticipate to leave this summer, particularly the prominent St. Andrew’s players.

birmingham city home ground st. andrew's — Even with the Blues’ financial support and their aspirations for the future, relegated clubs frequently lose their finest players, so when the transfer market starts, they won’t notice any differences.

Having said that, these three players need to depart from Birmingham City this summer.

**James Jordan**

Few of the club’s top players will be as sought-after as Jordan James.

Even if Birmingham City had stayed up, it might have been difficult to hold onto the young Welsh midfield player. It appears obvious that he will move now that he has been down to League One, and it will probably happen quite early in the transfer window.

Although James will have supporters at the top of the Championship, elite teams should also be interested.

**Kristian Bielik**

In order to escape playing League One football, Bielik departed Derby County last summer. Now that Birmingham City has suffered the same fate, he may decide to go again in an effort to keep his spot in the Poland national team.

There should be no shortage of fans for the 26-year-old when the transfer market opens because he is a dependable player at center back and defensive midfield.

Bacuna Juninho

Last but not least is Juninho Bacuna, another midfield player for Birmingham City.

The Curacao international is by far the most productive player for the Blues, with nine goals and six assists throughout the competition, and that will be enough to get him promoted.

Because of his 2025 deal, Birmingham City should be able to fetch a good price for him.
