Birmingham City has officially signed Jay Stansfield from Fulham in a record transfer for League One, reportedly worth over £15 million, including add-ons. Stansfield, who previously spent a season on loan with Birmingham, has become a fan favorite after scoring 12 goals in 43 matches, despite the team's relegation from the Championship. The deal marks Birmingham's third attempt this summer to surpass the previous League One transfer record, which they accomplished multiple times, spending a total of around £34 million. Stansfield expressed his excitement about returning to Birmingham, describing the club as an 'amazing project' and acknowledging the support from fans during his previous stint. Birmingham's investment in new players aims to strengthen the squad after last season’s struggles, with Stansfield's arrival being a significant milestone in their transfer strategy. The move reflects the club's ambition and the financial backing they have received from their American owners.
