Bournemouth are ready to try again for Birmingham City whizkid Demarai Gray.

The Sun says the Cherries will aim to make Birmingham starlet Gray their first signing for the top flight in a £5.5million deal.

Eddie Howe failed in an attempt to bring the 18-year-old to Dean Court in January.

But it is reported Birmingham are now ready to cash in on Gray, who has been watched by a host of Premier League clubs, including Liverpool and Manchester United.
