Birmingham City are set to hold a short training camp in Malta, starting this Sunday, The Times has learnt.

The Premier League club, eighth in the table on 33 points after going 12 matches unbeaten, have reportedly held successful talks with Air Malta over staging a mid-season training camp here in the next few days.

Birmingham City are away to Portsmouth in the Premier League tomorrow.

Air Malta are also in talks with West Ham United over a similar venture. Last week, Manchester United, the current English champions, also considered coming to Malta for a training camp but then chose to go to Doha in Qatar.
