Tim Pearson ‏@TimPearsonMedia 6m A potentially controversial move for Mats Møller Dæhli to rivals #SCFC is gathering pace. Nothing concrete yet. #CCFC - Stay tuned. Not with us but does anyone else remember this kid from when Cardiff came here, admittedly we smashed them 4-0 however this lad actually looked quite good and if anything was gonna happen it was through him Stick a cheeky bid in? Winger as well!
Yeah, he really caught m eye, I went on the Cardiff board and asked about him at the time and they really rate the lad.
Sunderland and Swansea are both heavily linked with a move for Spanish goal machine Jonathan Soriano this evening #SAFC #SWANSFC
Time for our round-up of all the Sunderland transfer news and rumours from the week just gone. It was a frustrating week for supporters this week, as no new signings were confirmed, there were very transfer rumours of note and a signing that looked possible completely died out but Gus Poyet is confident of surprising a few in the very near future before we get to any of that, the formalities.

There was not a lot to report this week but the big news was Gus Poyet's frustration at not having more of his squad in place with so little time left in pre-season; It's clear we need a few new players and it has not been as quick as I would have expected. We are all waiting. It's the same names, different stage of the season. We are waiting for news. It's getting a little close to the part where I really want to work with the main squad. I am like any other manager, the sooner you get the players the better. I hope it is now, today, tomorrow. It's difficult for me because there are things we need to work on this week. beginning of next week and that's practically it. The only thing you can do is ensure everything is in place and refresh things that you've done. One or two, they are close, but if you asked me last week I would say those two were close too. I cannot wait another week. We are going to be off Monday and Tuesday, so next Wednesday I need to have four new players. Poyet was feeling much more positive about Sunderland's prospects in the transfer market after the 0-0 draw with Vitoria Setubal, telling reporters after the game; There are plenty of things going on and I'm looking forward to things happening in the next few days, so it's all positive. I think we have a great chance (of signing players), a great chance. People are going to be surprised, which is great. It's all positive. We've had a few things that before we knew it they didn't work. But I'm hoping there's going to be some good news over the next two or three days. One player who will not be joining is Cristian Rodriguez after his potential move fell through this week. Reports in Spain and Uruguay had suggested that the Uruguayan international was at a very advanced stage with his signing described as 'imminent' by a media outlet that is owned by the player's agent, however that move completely collapsed this week with the player now likely to move elsewhere should he leave Atletico Madrid. Although one Uruguayan is unlikely to join, it wasn't long before Sunderland were linked with yet another of their World Cup squad, as a link with Abel Hernandez one again cropped up. Hernandez was previously linked with Sunderland last summer during Roberto de Fanti's reign as Director of Football. The Palermo striker, who can also play out wide, does have the extra yard of pace that we need and would be a good addition to the squad. However with the player's agent Pablo Betancourt in England last week drumming up interest in his client, it is hard to not to think that it's just a bit of a lazy link due to our interest in the player last summer and Poyet's comments about being determined to sign a Uruguayan this year. On a similar note, we were also linked once again with Galatasaray's Portuguese winger Bruma. It had been reported in January that we were on the verge of wrapping up a loan deal for the 19-year-old, only for the deal to be scuppered at the last minute due to the player suffering a serious knee injury, with a document claiming to be Sunderland's official offer leaked to the Turkish press. Despite the player only just returning to pre-season training with the Turkish giants after his injury, there have been reports that Sunderland retain an interest in Bruma, along with Marseille and Moncao. According to the reports Galatasaray would prefer to keep the winger but while they will not consider a loan deal, they would consider selling a player they bought from Sporting Lisbon for €12m. It's difficult to see us splashing out the money required to buy Bruma, considering the fee Galatasaray paid for the winger and the fact he's only just returned from a long term injury. Another winger linked and quickly ruled out was Christian Atsu of Chelsea. According to Sky Sports, Sunderland had been given permission to open talks with the Ghana international but when Poyet was asked about Atsu, he simply said; No. Poyet did expand on our alleged interest in Lazio's Luis Pedro Cavanda but that is another deal that looks unlikely to happen; After I heard the name yesterday morning I watched a few games of his. The first time I have seen him properly was yesterday. Maybe there is something I don't know or the answer is no Sunderland are still chasing deals for last season's on-loan trio of Fabio Borini, Marcos Alonso and Santiago Vergini. The club have spoken to Borini but that deal is still dragging on with his shoulder injury picked up in pre-season not helping matters Alonso's presence on Fiorentina's pre-season tour of South America and the Italian side's asking price is stalling that deal. Vergini is the closest of the three to signing but his involvement in the World Cup with Argentina and complicated third-party ownership matters regarding his parent club Atletico Fenix has made a deal to bring the 25-year-old more complicated than it originally appeared. According to reports in the Netherlands, Sunderland (and Swansea) have been in contact with Celtic over the potential signing of their Dutch centre half Virgil van Dijk. Celtic are believed to be willing to sell van Dijk and with the Scottish champions 4-1 down to Legia Warsaw going into the second leg of their Champions League third qualifying round tie, their imminent exit before the lucrative group stages of the competition is likely force Celtic to cash in on the 23-year-old. Max Clayton's Sunderland trial finished this week and despite Poyet originally being hopeful of signing the youngster, it's believed the club couldn't agree terms with Crewe. That let to Clayton joining Wolverhampton Wanderers on trial, all but ending Sunderland's interest in him. Sunderland's hopes of signing Jordon Mutch also appear to be hanging by a thread after QPR had a £5m bid for the midfielder rejected by Cardiff but Harry Redknapp is expected to return with an offer of around £6m, an offer that is thought to be enough to persuade Ole Gunnar Solksjaer to part with a player who only has one year remaining on his Cardiff contract. The final three links of the week are ones we should be able to completely ignore, as our name was thrown into the hat for South American duo Paolo Guerrero and Facundo Ferreyra. With both players looking for a move this smacks of ourselves and the usual suspects (QPR and West Ham) being used to drum up interest. Another "striker" linked was former Sunderland player Anthony Stokes. Stokes currently plays for Celtic and according to Goal.com we are one of a number of clubs tracking the "striker". No, just no. The Glass Spider is shut now anyway. No. Easily the worst rumour of the window so far. In outgoing news, Gus Poyet is confident Connor Wickham will sign a new deal at Sunderland but has warned the striker that he must sign a new contract or he will be sold by the club. An ultimatum that doesn't seem to have gone down too well with the player's father who tweeted; There is no doubt that the club will not want to lose a highly valued talent, particularly after he finally started producing for the first team but his father's insistence that no new contract was offered is at odds with reports that he had rejected Sunderland's initial offer. So it will be interesting to see how his situation develops throughout this transfer window. Finally, Alfred N'Diaye is being courted by an increasing number of Spanish sides. After Real Betis and Malaga made their interest known, Celta Vigo are the latest name to be linked with the Senegal international. The president of Betis, who had the player on-loan last season, said his club would keep trying for the player but admits their relegation will count against them; We are in the second division, which is a handicap with a player of his class. We have hope and we will keep trying, but it cannot be said today that he is close to Betis.

Italian Serie A side Lazio have said they are prepared to sell Nigeria midfielder Ogenyi Onazi but only if their valuation of the player is met. Lazio president Claudio Lotito has told Onazi's representatives that the 21-year-old will not leave the club for less than €10 million ($13.5m). He has been the subject of enquiries from English Premier League trio Everton, Southampton and Sunderland. Lazio president Claudio Lotito has told Onazi's representatives that the 21-year-old will not leave the club for less than €10 million ($13.5m). He has been the subject of enquiries from English Premier League trio Everton, Southampton and Sunderland. He has also attracted interest from German and Spanish clubs. The Nigerian international midfielder, who earns just US$268,000 per year, making him one of the lowest earners at the Italian club, has made it clear he wants to leave. It is believed interested clubs are reluctant to pay Lazio's asking price for a player they bought for less than US$400,000 from Nigerian amateur side My People FC in 2011. The player's agent, Jonathan Barnett, has reportedly demanded an improved deal for Onazi or for Lazio to lower their valuation of his client. Barnett wants a solid recognition of the player as an emerging star in world football, but the club's top officials insist they will not sell Onazi for a reduced fee. Lotitio has not ruled out the prospect of selling the Super Eagle this summer for the right price, as the club is aware he could leave on the cheap next year. His current deal at the Rome-based club runs out in June 2016. After representing Nigeria at youth level, the defensive midfielder has enjoyed a meteoric rise over the last few years since making his senior debut in October 2012. He played in all four of Nigeria's games at the World Cup in Brazil and has now recovered from the injury he suffered against France in the last 16 that saw him leave the stadium in a wheelchair. Onazi has made a total of 22 appearances for the African champions and scored once. Lazio will listen to offers for Onazi Italian Serie A side Lazio are prepared to sell Nigeria World Cup midfielder Ogenyi Onazi but he will cost at least US$13.5 million. bbc.co.uk

Football / Sprout Cluj and Sunderland. To rid the place to Bruno Peres, for now, no move ''-bis Zeytullayev '' The Bull wants to hold Bruno Peres: no reverse, no second thoughts. The player, in spite of the slight injury suffered, part of the plans Ventura who sees him as a substitute designated by Darmian for this season. Vesovic has admirers at home and not only, as Cluj and Sunderland, the last to ask questions. At this time the Torino is trying to accelerate the player to place abroad, but did not let it slip at all. In fact, the grenade are testing the waters to find a company willing to buy the player, knowing that you have to give way again to the grenade during the next season. We talk, in practice, an '' disguised loan '' as defined by the sale: formula that would allow the Taurus, in fact, to free the box for extra-ration Bruno Peres. The transfer, with the option to recompra in favor of grenade: This is the road taken by the club via Archbishopric. That by the consecration of Darmian (class '89) and the inclusion of Bruno Peres (born in '90) would find itself with a blanket far the right. And the youngest, Vesovic (class '91) around to gain experience, to come back stronger than before.
