Real Betis could be set to make a surprise move for Birmingham City winger Julian Gray.

Real Betis could be set to make a surprise move for Birmingham City winger Julian Gray.

Reports emanating from Spain suggest Betis have targeted Gray as a possible signing for the summer.

Betis are in the market for a new left-sided winger and Gray is believed to be among their list of options.

Gray's future at Birmingham looks uncertain following their relegation from the Premiership last term.

Birmingham know they face a fight to keep hold of their best players and Gray would jump at the chance to move to Spain if Betis firm up their interest.

The Spanish side are also keeping tabs on Lanus star Sebastian Leto as an alternative to Gray.

Meanwhile, Betis have signed Barcelona defender Oscar Lopez.

Lopez spent last season on loan at Betis and the club have moved to sign him permanently on a four-year deal.

Barcelona are willing to let Lopez leave as he is well down the pecking order at Camp Nou.
