Journalist shares insight on Onel Hernandez’s Norwich City situation after impressive Birmingham City loan

Birmingham City loanee Onel Hernandez is due to return to parent club Norwich City next week, reports journalist Samuel Seaman.

Hernandez, 29, started the season on loan at Middlesbrough. But he left the Teesside club in January to join Birmingham City where he became an instant favourite among Blues supporters.

His initial appearances for the club were fruitful. But the Cuban has since fallen out of form slightly, going into the final game of the season v Blackburn Rovers with three goals and three assists to his name, in 21 league outings for Birmingham City.

Manager Lee Bowyer hasn’t been shy in expressing his desire to sign Hernandez permanently this summer. But Norwich City’s relegation to the Championship could have an impact on that, as Seaman points out.

He tweeted earlier today:

Norwich City under Dean Smith look as though they might struggle to secure yet another immediate return to the Premier League.

The club looks to have a lot of rebuilding to do and what their stance on players like Hernandez, Jordan Hugill and Sam McCallum might be remains to be seen.

Uncertainty at Birmingham City…

And there’s a lot of uncertainty at Birmingham City right now with the Bowyer’s future up in the air. Reports claim that he will be sacked at the end of this season and so whether or not Blues will retain an interest in Hernandez remains to be seen.

The attacker has certainly given Birmingham City and Norwich something to think about ahead of this summer though, after a solid showing at St Andrew’s.
