Summer Transfer window

Not sure how much I trust the team talk valuations but very impressive if true.

 

Doyle is the kind of hard working lad Regis would love, also played about 6 different positions and doesn't kick up a fuss.

 

Suits this system perfectly

 

More like Neil, good on the ball and good engine on him. Good at set pieces as well

I'd much rather Doyle than Henderson

Feel Doyle would be a class addition ot the squad, rather than a guaranteed starter

 

I think £3m for Doyle with 50 PL appearances in his last 2 seasons is an incredible deal BUT I'm not entirely sure he's the right profile of player who's going to change things for us.

For me he'd very much be ELF's understudy rather than a first choice starter.

 

Buzzing to make Enzo permanent, hes a classy player and tbh I don't think we've seen him fully up to speed yet.

 

Also this has been reported by @DarrenOWitcoop btw

 

Strength in depth is essential also

 

Not been on twitter for this calendar year but from memory he's actually one of the reliable journalists.

 

Bournemouth have bid for that other full back today aswell. That leave us free to get Merlin?

 

I'm gonna say it as well, I know I shouldn't think like this. But Tommy Doyle would be brilliant for us back in the championship IF we get relegated.

It's a no brainer signing at £5m let alone £3m

 

They've bid for about 5 different ones, if Merlin knows he's option number 1 here he's surely tempted

 

I don’t agree. It allows rotation

at the minute you’ll have ELF Rigg neil Doyle as 4 options out of 6. With them all being able to play at least 2 different positions in midfield

 

Did Amad not sign a new deal at Utd late last year? If he did, then his terms would have been very, very high. Utd pay absurd wages, and well out of our league. Nice dream mind!

 

these could be ****ed to be honest

losing 3 of their back 4 with potential for semenyo and the manager to leave

 

Yeh I meant he's not going to massively improve our first team in the way Singo would.

He improves our squad overall but not our first 11, for me at least.

 

We improve players.

Doyle be Iniesta-Lite by October.

 

Sunderland want to kick start their Premier League return with a double swoop for Tommy Doyle and Wilfried Singo, TEAMtalk understands.

The Black Cats initially plan to strengthen their spine of their team, with Wolves midfielder Doyle earmarked as a potential arrival.

Sunderland had initially failed to prise 23-year-old Doyle away on loan in January but will look now at a permanent deal for Manchester City academy product.

Doyle, who is free to leave Wolves after falling out of favour under Victor Pereira, is up for grabs for as little as £3m.

That price tag also interests Championship clubs with Sheffield United, where he was previously on loan, among the suitors.


TEAMtalk understands that Sunderland are in the box seat for Doyle, despite the competition, and Regis Le Bris has also identified Monaco defender Singo as a target.

The powerful and speedy 24-year-old, who can play as a centre-back or right-back, is up for grabs for £15m this summer.

Sunderland’s first signing will be Enzo Le Fee, with a £19.5m permanent deal for the on-loan Roma midfielder automatically triggered following their play-off triumph.
England’s Ajax midfielder Jordan Henderson, who was at Wembley to watch his boyhood club stun Sheffield United, continues to be linked with a return to Wearside.

And Sunderland chiefs also want to keep two of their players that played a huge role in helping Sunderland end their eight-year Premier League exile.


Tying down homegrown hero Dan Neil to fresh terms is at the top of their priority list with Everton big fans, as TEAMtalk transfer correspondent Harry Watkinson revealed on March 27, while there is interest from abroad in the midfielder.

Highly-rated left-back Dennis Cirkin, just like Neil, is also heading into his final year of his contract and his attracting admirers.

 

Doyle, Le Fee, Neil and a dominate CDM to replace Jobe gives us 4 good options

Then add another AM to rotate with Rigg and that's a good CM

I'd love a bid for James McAtee as our AM, but feel he might be out of range

 

They've had a bid rejected for Truffert.

Never heard of Merlin tbh. Would he come in ahead of Cirkin?
