Apparently Sunderland scouts went to watch Hoffenheim striker Kevin Volland, if Sunderland wish to sign him let hope they have some on him to get him here.
Sunderland sit second bottom on the league and are a serious relegation contender even at this early stage of the season, only Aston Villa’s shocker of a season hold the Black Cats off the bottom.
Big Sam has made no secret of his desperation to bring in new faces to save Sunderland’s season.
Vollard has scored 33 goals in 122 games for Hoffenheim, being one of the most top scorers in the German league and has played 5 times for the German international side.
