Sunderland interested in Norwich midfielder

According to Sport24, Sunderland are one of a number of clubs interested in Norwich midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu.

The report says that Mulumbu is keen on a move back to France, having previously played for PSG, despite English interest.

Premier League trio Crystal Palace, Sunderland and Middlesbrough are all thought to be interested in the midfielder, but Marseille are the favourites at this time.

Mulumbu joined Norwich on a free transfer last summer having left West Brom, but he now has just one year left on his contract.

After a poor season at Norwich, resulting in relegation, a new contract for the midfielder is unlikely. This has opened the door for Mulumbu to leave Norfolk this summer, with a move to France now looking like his destination.

Sunderland will be hoping that they can persuade him to ditch a move back to France and come and join them in their quest to retain their Premier League status once more.
