Birmingham City have emerged as the latest club to express interest in signing FC Porto forward Danny Namaso, with the Cameroonian international increasingly likely to leave the Portuguese side this summer.
The 24-year-old, who is under contract with Porto until June 2028, has attracted a growing list of suitors across Europe.
Vitória SC, Rio Ave, Club Brugge, Fulham, and several Spanish clubs are all reported to be monitoring his situation closely.
Now, Birmingham City have joined the chase, according to Portuguese outlet Record.
Namaso’s future in Porto appears uncertain despite his long-term deal, with the club understood to be open to offers.
Sources indicate that Porto are willing to negotiate a transfer for the striker, who is currently valued at €4m by Transfermarkt.
The Indomitable Lion has built a reputation for his work rate, strength, and versatility in attack.
Since joining Porto, he has made appearances in both domestic and European competitions, contributing with goals and assists while also offering depth across the forward line.
His performances have drawn attention from clubs seeking a striker who can adapt to multiple tactical systems.
For Birmingham City, who are competing in the Championship this season, securing Namaso would represent a statement of intent.
The club is looking to strengthen its attacking options as it navigates a demanding campaign, with ambitions of climbing the table and pushing for promotion.
Birmingham’s interest comes as they prepare for their second-round Championship fixture against Blackburn Rovers.
While their focus remains on the pitch, the prospect of adding a player with Namaso’s pedigree is likely to excite supporters eager for reinforcements.
A move to England would mark a new chapter for Namaso, offering him the challenge of one of the most competitive leagues in the world.
At the same time, it would provide Porto with a significant transfer fee for a player who, despite his potential, has yet to secure a regular starting role in their line-up.
With the summer transfer window still open and competition for his signature intensifying, Namaso will have to weigh his options carefully.
Whether he chooses Birmingham, another suitor in Portugal, or a move to Spain or Belgium, his decision could shape the next major phase of his career.
For now, the race to secure the Cameroonian striker’s signature is heating up — and Birmingham City have firmly placed themselves in contention.
