Birmingham City are targeting a move for 29-year-old Lille striker Eder, according to L’Equipe.

The club are said to have made contact with Lille over a potential transfer for the striker, along with Premier League new boys Brighton.

The Ligue 1 club want ?6m for the man who scored the goal that won the 2016 European Championships for Portugal, but both Blues and Brighton would prefer a loan.

After an unsuccessful move to the Premier League with Swansea, Eder has gone on to score six goals in each of his last two seasons with Lille- who are now looking to offload him.

Harry Redknapp is still in the market for a striker, despite securing the services of Isaac Vassell yesterday.

Olympiakos, CSKA Moscow and Girona also keen on Eder, but once again prefer the option of a loan deal.
