Birmingham City 'interested in signing Dundee goalkeeper Scott Bain'

Birmingham City have reportedly joined the race to sign Dundee goalkeeper Scott Bain, who is currently on loan at Celtic.

The 26-year-old, who has been with the Scottish Premiership leaders since the end of January, is under contract with Dundee until the end of the season.

Bain made his debut for Celtic in a thrilling 3-2 Old Firm victory over Rangers last weekend, during which he made a number of crucial saves, and the Scottish Sun reports that his performance has drawn the interest of clubs in Scotland and England.

The reports suggest that Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is keen to hold on to the keeper, but will face competition from the likes of Birmingham City, Hibernian and Hearts for the Scot's signature.

Rodgers's side face an away fixture against Motherwell in the league on Sunday, with Bain's recent form making him likely to start.
