Transfer Rumour

-
The England full-back is being tipped today with a move to The Stadium of Light for a season long loan, with the view to making the move a permanent one if Sunderland survive. This position isn't a concern for me. A striker and centre midfield position must be top of the list.

JeromeStrikerCardiff City400k -
Mick has had a 250k bid for the telented foward rejected as City are holding out for 400k. Jerome is a great player and certainly worth 250k if we can get him for that.

Traianos
DellasDefenderRoma??? -
The Euro 2004 winner has been linked with a move to the Stadium of light and what a signing that would be. Get your hand in your pocket Mick.

Steve

A welcome signing at Sunderland and has more than enough Premiership experience. Sign him!

Frazer
RichardsonRight-BackLeeds United??? -
Has made 41 appearences for Leeds this season, but most in midfield. I havn't seen much of Frazer, so can't really comment on his ability as a player.

Neil
LennonCentre MidfieldCelticFree -
Neil is approaching the end of his contract and would be available on a free transfer. I would welcome Neil as he has the type of steel and experience needed in the top flight.

Derek
RiordanStrikerHibernian? -
Scotland's young player of the year with a staggering 22 goals this season. I've never seen the boy in action, but is said to be a very promicing forward. Derek wouldn't command a large fee as his contract only has a year remaining.

Robbie
KeaneStrikerTottenham Hotspur5m -
Very unlikely that Mr Keane will be joining Sunderland. But not because he wouldn't. More so because he would take up all or at least a large chunk of Mick's transfer kitty.

Teddy
SherringhamStrikerWest HamFree -
In my eyes would be a great signing to ensure Premiership survival. Has scored 20 goals in the Championship and could score half that still in the top flight.

Kevin
PhillipsStrikerSouthampton1.2m -
Which Sunderland supporter wouldn't have him back eh? Unfortunitly I can't see it happening. Mick doesn't want any players from the old regime back at the club, but never say never.

Peter
CrouchStrikerSouthampton3m -
Has played well this season, but has done nothing previously. Why waste money on a player like this, when we already have big Kyler. Thanks, but no thanks.

Jamie
RedknappCentre MidfieldSouthamptonfree -
I would sign him in a flash. Great player to have on the books for our survival season and maybe the following one.

Darren
BentStrikerIpswich3m -
I think Mick is lining up a bid for Darren. This depends on if Ipswich come up through the play-offs or not. I've got Preston down to come up in the play-offs, so I wouldn't bet against this tranfer rumour becoming reality.

David
BellionStrikerManchester United1m -
Don't be so bloody stupid! Pull the other one!

Francis
JeffersStrikerCharlton Athletic1.2m -
The boy has ability and talent, something that Mick may be able to capture and use to effect for the scouser again.

Clinton
MorrisonStrikerBirmingham City3.5m -
A good striker and I know he would welcome a move to the SOL to work under Mick McCarthy again. Would be a good signing.

Jon
SteadStrikerBlackburn Rovers1.5m -
I would snap this boy up in a jiffy. Has only scored two goals all season, but I think he would shine under Mick McCarthy.

Mike
PollitKeeperRotherham United? -
Has had another consistant season for the Millers even with relegation. Not sure we need him if Mhyre signs a new contract, plus, Alnick has been amazing since coming into the first team.
