Similar to many other clubs in the Football League, Birmingham City has experienced significant transfers, with players fetching impressive fees. Players like Jude Bellingham, Che Adams, and Matthew Upson stand out as notable departures from St. Andrews @ Knighthead Park in recent years. However, their most notable transaction may have been Jermaine Pennant, who joined from Arsenal for £3 million.
Birmingham City managed to make a considerable profit when Pennant moved to Liverpool in 2006. Despite his talent on the field, Pennant’s off-field behavior often garnered more attention, leaving many to ponder what might have been in the West Midland Lloyds.
