Birmingham reject second Bournemouth bid for Gray

Birmingham City have turned down a second bid from AFC Bournemouth for talented winger Demarai Gray.

The Cherries had already seen a £1.5million proposal for the 18-year old rejected but have since returned with a new offer of £2million according to reports.

Sky Sports suggests that the Blues have opted to decline Bournemouth's bid as they see Gray as an integral part of their future after nurturing him through the academy ranks.

City also see the valuation that the Championship leaders have placed on Gray is well below what they would be willing to sell him for.
