Sunderland rivalling European duo for ‘phenomenal’ Premier League gem as new name linked
Sunderland are now in the race to sign an exciting Premier League youngster during the January transfer window, in what is a fresh link for the Black Cats.
The January transfer window opens in just a few days now, and for Sunderland, it’ll surely prove to be a vital refuelling point as they eye promotion from the Championship.
Last time out, Sunderland drew 2-2 with Blackburn Rovers in a game between two top six contenders. But the Black Cats arguably should’ve won, letting slip a 2-1 lead late on.
Regis Le Bris now finds his side in 4th place of the Championship table and four points behind leaders Leeds United.
Sunderland fans think a new striker is needed in January, though Le Bris has often played down the chances of Sunderland signing many players during the winter window.
Instead, it looks like the Black Cats might have their hands full with managing who leaves the Stadium of Light.
But a new name has now been linked with a potential move to Wearside.
