Birmingham City “preparing for offers” on England’s U18 star George Hall
Birmingham City “preparing for offers” on 17-year-old George Hall after Premier League and Bundesliga scouts saw the midfielder’s fantastic England U18 performance against Sweden
- Premier League scouts took part in England’s U18 matches in Marbella last week
- Ryan Garry’s Young Lions beat Sweden 3-2 and drew 3-3 against Denmark
- Birmingham City’s George Hall was particularly impressive in midfield
- Leeds and Southampton are both said to be interested in the 17-year-old
The Premier League and European scouts watched England’s U18 when they hosted Sweden and Denmark in Marbella last week.
England ran out with 3-2 winners against Sweden and showed good character to come back from 3-0 below to play 3-3 against Denmark at Marbella football center.
Birmingham City’s youngster George Hall was once again the subject of much discussion, after making impressive performances from midfield.
Birmingham City’s George Hall is said to be a target for a number of top clubs during the summer
He was the only outside player outside a Premier League club who made Ryan Garry’s squad and once again impressed the Scouts with his tactical versatility.
Hall played in a number of different midfield positions and showed the physical ability required to play top-level a-team football.
Birmingham rates the 17-year-old very highly, but is preparing for offers with Leeds United, Southampton and some Bundesliga teams among those who keep an eye on his development.
Hall has only made an appearance in the Championship for Birmingham this season
The signing would definitely suit the model in Leeds, with 19-year-old striker Joe Gelhardt making 14 Premier League appearances during his second season at the club.
It would be the second time the Yorkshire club has praised a talent away from St Andrews after recruiting 19-year-old Amari Miller during the recent summer window.
However, Hall can follow in the footsteps of Jude Bellingham, who left the Blues to join Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2020, and who has continued to play in England’s first team.
