Birmingham City have been dealt a potential blow ahead of their crucial upcoming fixture, as midfielder Krystian Bielik is facing a race against time to be fit following a fresh injury concern.
The Polish international was forced off during a recent training session at Wast Hills, with early reports suggesting a muscle strain, though the club is yet to confirm the full extent of the injury. Bielik has been a central figure in Birmingham’s campaign, offering experience and versatility in midfield and defence.
A source close to the club told reporters, There’s cautious optimism, but the next 48 hours will be crucial in determining his availability.
With Birmingham City preparing for a pivotal match that could shape their season—whether in the race for promotion, a playoff push, or avoiding relegation—Bielik’s absence would be a significant setback for manager Chris Davies.
Fans will be watching closely as updates are expected ahead of the weekend fixture. The club is likely to make a formal statement following further medical assessment.
