McLeish weighing up move for Mallorca ace

Birmingham City have been linked with a move for Real Mallorca's Dudu Aouate as Alex McLeish weighs up his goalkeeper options this summer. Joe Hart has been Blues' number one shot-stopper this term, although it remains to be seen whether he will remain at the club next season. Birmingham have reportedly been in contact with Aouate's agent about making a formal offer for the 32-year-old at the end of the season. The Israel international, who is contracted to the Liga outfit until the summer of 2011, is believed to command a value in the €2million (£1.7m) region. Aouate holds a French passport and has an impressive CV having played for the likes of Racing Santander and Deportivo before joining Mallorca last summer.
