Sunderland and Birmingham City have both been linked with Musa Drammeh, but the striker is now set to join Hearts, it is reported.

Sunderland and Birmingham City will be hoping for significantly improved 2024/25 campaigns, with the Black Cats pushing forward under new boss Regis Le Bris while the Blues will be battling for League One promotion.

The difference in divisions means there might not be much of a crossover between the two clubs’ transfer targets. However, relegated City are setting their sights high as they start a new chapter under Chris Davies.

One player who has been linked with both clubs is striker Musa Drammeh. Cardiff City were also mentioned in previous reports.

Now though, it is claimed he won’t be heading to Sunderland, Birmingham City or South Wales.

Citing reports in Spain, Football Scotland says that Gambian striker Musa Drammeh is set to head to Scotland with top-flight side Hearts. The 22-year-old will move on a free transfer as his deal with Spain side Sevilla Atletico coming to an end later this month.
