According to Sky Sports, Blues are one of three clubs keeping tabs on Monaco striker Mohamed Kallon - am I right in thinking we were linked with the Sierra Leone international during the summer of 2002?
Kallon, who is currently on loan at the French side from Inter Milan, is also rumoured to be intersting both West Brom and Bolton.
Closer to home the Birmingham Post and Mail are suggesting that Blues, and local rivals Villa, are monitoring England Under 21 striker Dean Ashton's situation at Crewe.
Tottenham's Robbie Keane, Wigan's Nathan Ellington and Ipswich Town's Darren Bent are other names being suggested by the media as potential targets for manager Steve Bruce when the 'window' opens at the beginning of next year.
