Paulo Tavares: Being watched by Sunderland ....Sky Sports understands that Sunderland are following Portuguese midfielder Paulo Tavares. The 26-year-old attacking midfielder has enjoyed an impressive campaign for Vitoria Setubal and helped them to a 2-1 win over Sporting Lisbon on Sunday. Sky Sports has learnt a Sunderland scout was present at the Estadio do Bonfim to see him play the full 90 minutes.

Tavares had previously spent his whole career with Leixoes before joining Setubal this summer on a free transfer. .
Just takes me back to the post from a villa fan that is on here. He said they got linked with loads of talent from abroad but oneill doesn't go for that sort of player, British or British based.
