Birmingham City will reportedly challenge Rangers and Huddersfield Town for Portsmouth goalkeeper Craig MacGillivray during the January transfer window.

Birmingham City are reportedly interested in Portsmouth goalkeeper Craig MacGillivray, with Rangers and Huddersfield Town also thought to be keen on signing him this January.

MacGillivray has impressed for Portsmouth since he joined the club in 2018 and has played a key role in their solid start to the League One season.

According to the Birmingham Mail, Birmingham will try to sign the goalkeeper next month, although Portsmouth are thought to value the player at £2.5m.

The report adds that, while Birmingham already have four senior goalkeepers on their books, the position remains a priority for manager Pep Clotet.

Birmingham currently sit 15th in the Championship, having conceded 24 goals in 19 matches.

Portsmouth would reportedly prefer to do a deal during the summer if MacGillivray is to leave, but will try their best to keep hold of the player.
