Sunderland’s Patrick van Aanholt reported to be the top transfer target for Crystal Palace.

Sunderland’s premier league future is currently in the balance, the vultures are already circling.

Sunderland’s future is in their own hands with a game in hand over both Newcastle United and Norwich.

A newspaper has reported this week claim that Dutch full-back Van Aanholt is wanted by Crystal Palace, and will be available for a fee of 3 million.  The defender had a shocking start to the season, but since arrival of Allardyce has been like a new player.

With Allardyce being linked to a summer move defender Joey O’Brien and if Sunderland do go down Van Aanholt may end up moving on.
