    <p class="big">David Sullivan admits Birmingham City hold an interest in former Middlesbrough team-mates Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Mark Viduka. </p>

    Following Blues' promotion back into the Premiership, the club are looking to strengthen the squad to prevent relegation again. </p>

    Attack is a key area to improve and co-owner Sullivan concedes Hasselbaink, who was released by Charlton Athletic earlier in the week, is under consideration. </p>

    &quot;He's a possibility,&quot; Sullivan told the Birmingham Mail about the veteran Dutch striker. </p>

    &quot;We are ruling nothing out, but neither are we ruling anything in. </p>

    &quot;Definitely, we need a striker who will score goals in the Premier League. Sheffield United got relegated because they were one goal worse off than Fulham and Wigan.&quot; </p>

    Regarding a potential deal for Viduka, Sullivan accepts it could be more difficult to entice the Australian to St Andrews. </p>

    Viduka's contract at Middlesbrough expires shortly and he has yet to make a decision on his future, with several clubs monitoring his situation. </p>

    Birmingham are one of those and, while acknowledging the ex-Leeds United forward has his faults, Sullivan admitted an interest. </p>

    He added: &quot;The trouble is, eight clubs are chasing him. </p>

    &quot;Viduka's 31 and goes missing in some games - but he scores goals.&quot; </p>

    Delusions of grandeur again...

    As much chance of us signing Viduka as them.

    None.
