Birmingham City, Derby County Reportedly Chase Nigerian Winger Philip Otele

Birmingham City and Derby County have reportedly joined the race to sign Nigerian winger Philip Otele from FC Basel. Derby County are said to have opened talks with the Swiss champions, but Lecce and Frosinone are also monitoring the 27-year-old. Otele spent the second half of last season on loan at Hamburg, where he scored once in nine league appearances. Hamburg did not make the move permanent, and Basel are reportedly willing to sell for about €5 million.
