Birmingham City want Stoke City's Andy Wilkinson?

Stoke City right-back Andy Wilkinson is reportedly a summer transfer target of Birmingham City.

The 30-year-old has risen through the ranks at the Britannia Stadium, but he has fallen out of favour in recent campaigns.

His contract is due to expire in the summer, with Stoke boss Mark Hughes said to be willing to let the defender leave on a free transfer.

That would appeal to Birmingham manager Gary Rowett, who is eager to bolster his defensive options during the pre-season break, according to the Birmingham Mail.

Wilkinson spent part of the current season on loan with Championship strugglers Millwall.
