This summer has been a transitional one for the Black Cats, with a change of manager delaying any potential transfer dealings on Wearside. The Black Cats are playing catch-up in the transfer window with several names linked daily.
Sunderland are severely short on striking options with Jermain Defoe the only senior striker on the books, with Fabio Borini used primarily as a winger nowadays.
