Story is that Huddlestone is available for loan, now I'd be interested in that. We're not linked, but him over Jenas 7 days a week.
A friend of a friend who used to be on the safc books years ago was at the physios funeral the other day.He knew the man quite well.He got to talk to an x safc player who works for the club now after the funeral.Cant mention any names but he said he wouldnt be surprised if safc spent 50 million by the end of the transfer window.Might be rubbish but why would he say this without some inside information.
SUNDERLAND are hoping to sign Tottenham Hotspur pair Jermaine Jenas and Danny Rose as Martin O'Neill looks to belatedly kick-start his summer recruitment drive. O'Neill (pictured) has been growing increasingly exasperated at Sunderland's failure to make any significant breakthroughs in the transfer market, so the arrival of the Spurs duo would provide a much-needed lift. With less than two weeks to go until the transfer window closes, Sunderland still have much to do if O'Neill is to be content with the strength of his squad. The arrival of midfielder Jenas and left-back Rose would increase competition. O'Neill is also hoping to land Scotland striker Steven Fletcher from Wolves, despite months of fractious haggling over a fee. Wolves have been holding out for £15million for Fletcher even though he has handed in a transfer request. Sunderland, who have offered £12m, have looked into the possibility of signing Dimitar Berbatov from Manchester United should they fail to reach a compromise.
He might have read, like all of us have, that we are in for Johnson and Fletcher, there's 25m. So then he might just have a feeling we might get another couple of big signings in?
Take a look back at Ellis direct interview 'quality not quantity'. 4 quality signings at £50 million? That's wiped out by the Gyan sale, £8million Bent instalment, £2million for Kenwyne (crazy deal), sponsorship & kit deal.
