Garry Monk has been dealt a huge blow this summer, with Birmingham City placed under a transfer embargo.

After last season’s disappointing Sky Bet Championship campaign, where Monk helped Birmingham avoid relegation by the narrowest of margins, big changes were expected at St Andrew’s.

However, Monk could now be forced to rethink his transfer plans, after reports confirmed that the Blues were under an embargo, which will cause havoc to their summer plans.

Financial Fair Play guidelines have stung Birmingham, leaving Monk in a difficult situation, with his summer’s work now looking difficult.

Monk will have to be shrewd with what he does in the coming weeks and months if he wants to reshape his struggling Birmingham squad.

With all that in mind, we take a look at Birmingham, identifying TWO players we could see arriving at St Andrew’s before the end of July…

Green is a free agent this summer, and a player that Monk knows well.

The pair spent a year together at Leeds United, where Green impressed.

The ex-England goalkeeper could be a good option for Birmingham to turn to, as Monk looks for someone to take the No.1 jersey at St Andrew’s.

Huth is another free agent available this summer, which could be the market Monk is now forced to shop in.

The ex-Leicester City centre-back has a wealth of experience and would add a lot to Birmingham’s squad.

Aston Villa are interested, but Monk should consider a swoop given recent developments.
