Town and Hull City are reported to be eyeing Sheffield United keeper George Long.
The 24-year-old, who spent last season on loan in League One with AFC Wimbledon, won’t be the first choice at Bramall Lane in the season ahead with the Blades having signed Dean Henderson, who played for Blues boss Paul Hurst at Shrewsbury last season, on loan from Manchester United.
According to ,the Tigers are looking for another keeper following the departure of Allan McGregor to Rangers, while the Blues could be in the market for another number one if Bartosz Bialkowski should move on.
Sheffield-born Long came through the youth system at Bramall Lane and has made 122 starts and one sub appearance for his hometown club.
In addition to last season’s spell with the Dons - 49 starts - the 6ft 4in tall former England U18 international has spent stints on loan with Oxford United and Motherwell.
Town have previously been linked with Rangers keeper Wes Foderingham, who is expected to leave Ibrox this summer, and Bolton’s Ben Amos this summer with Bialkowski potentially departing this summer.
Birmingham City have had an offer of £2.5 million turned down and are expected to come in with a further bid, while it's likely other clubs are also keen on the Polish international, who was the subject of Crystal Palace interest in January.
The Blues are understood to have made contact with the Scottish Premiership side regarding Foderingham, however, it’s not believed Town are interested in Amos despite having been made aware of the former Manchester United trainee’s availability.
