Sunderland and Cardiff City are the latest Championship teams to be linked with a move for the attacker this summer. He is under contract with Motherwell until June 2025. According to the Daily Mail, Blackburn Rovers and Bristol City are interested in Bair, who is 24 years old, for the forthcoming transfer window. Meanwhile, the South London Press reports that League One club Charlton Athletic is also interested. According to the most recent update from HITC Sport, the Black Cats and Bluebirds are also interested in signing him. FC, on the other hand, are newcomers to the Bundesliga. St Pauli has also been credited with an interest following their promotion from the Bundesliga.2.
The Canadian international joined his current club a year ago and has quickly established himself as a crucial player, netting 15 goals across all competitions last season. Sunderland and Cardiff City target Blackburn Rovers. Bair hails from Ottawa, Ontario, and began his career as a teenager with the Ottawa Royals, Capital United, and West Ottawa SC before joining the Vancouver Whitecaps. He progressed through the MLS club’s academy ranks and represented several youth levels before playing 38 competitive games for their first squad, scoring three goals.
The 6ft 3inc attacker also went on loan to HamKam in Norway to gain experience. St Johnstone then pulled him away from Canada permanently for the first time in 2022, but he struggled to make an impression on the Saints. Bair spent a year and a half at McDiarmid Park, but only scored once in 34 appearances before being released.
Motherwell gave him a second opportunity last year, and he has since become the club’s key attacking force. What’s next for the attacker? Sunderland may see Bair as someone to bolster their attacking unit. However, they must first address their managerial issues. Cardiff City have signed manager Erol Bulut to a new contract and may have identified the Canadian as a forward target, while Blackburn Rovers are also looking for new players.
