Lyle Taylor is "unlikely" to join Birmingham City permanently from Nottingham Forest, according to reports.
The 32-year-old has proved to be a success at St Andrew's since joining from Forest on-loan in January. Five goals in 13 starts – three in his first four games – combined with a series of impressive displays have made him Lee Bowyer ’s first choice striker, propelling him ahead of the likes of Scott Hogan, Troy Deeney and Lukas Jutkiewicz.
Bowyer had made suggestions that Blues would like to retain the striker beyond the summer, but one major stumbling block seems to have put that idea onto the back seat.
