Manchester United's Donald Love and Manchester City's Jack Byrne in action

According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United have offered right back Donald Love to Sunderland – and manager David Moyes is open to a deal.

The Black Cats have endured a frustrating summer, as Sam Allardyce left the club to take over as England manager last month, and the club's first signing of the summer only arrived on Friday as Papy Djilobodji arrived from Chelsea.

Sunderland manager David Moyes poses

New manager David Moyes needs new additions quickly given that the new Premier League season is just a matter of days away, and it seems that one of his former clubs are looking to offer him some players.

The Daily Mail report that Manchester United – who Moyes managed for less than a year – have offered Sunderland a deal for Paddy McNair, as well as right back Donald Love.

Donald Love is a very good young prospect, one who looks like he could make the step up right now.

McNair, meh, wouldn't be bothered if he left for peanuts, he's good on the ball but not great positionally and his awareness needs work, still if he left I'd wish him all the best.

Sounds promosing.
 
If we sell kone it would just show how much ambition we've have. Fukkin none. We've just been given a hell of an amount of money for staying up yet we will still sell if the bids big enough which it's about 30 million short imo wen u look at what stones is going for. Selling your best defender 4 days before a new season begins is asking for trouble we have no proven partnership. Sums us up at minute spend 8 get 18. More money for us not to spend. I've just finished nights and I'm off work for 3 weeks now yet I'm pissed off. Wonderful

The thing is mate, even if its true, we don't know what else is going on behind the scenes. We may need this cash plus whatever else ES is going to chip in, for targets that Moyesy's got lined up.

Our first signing was right out of left field, caught everyone by surprise. They may well be working on several others we know nothing about.

It's just a little too early for me to get worked up about losing Kone (which I would be) if we don't necessarily know the whole picture.

Fingers crossed they're working their asses off trying to get new signings in this week.
 
The Mail reported two days ago he wasn't interested in leaving. 2 days later they're reporting he's off.

I'll be gutted if it's true.

But why the need to chip in when we have a PROVEN player in that position and we are so nearly at the beginning of the season, beggars belief!!!

That's what i cant get my head around, 2 days ago he was staying here and next he is supposedly at Everton waiting to shake hands on a deal.
Its not as though there are only 2 hours left of the transfer window!!
i am hoping its lazy journo's again just bullshitting, there is nothing that i have seen on the Everton board about Kone so just hoping its carp.
Worst thing about this though is that it could be turning his head.
Moyes said that he may have to sell sometime to fund transfers, but i was taking that as being like next year or the year after, not now.

Don't disagree mate. I'll be well hacked off if he goes and he's not replaced.

Personally don't think he's going anywhere though. I think this might all be just a non-story thats taken off. Well, I'm hoping it is anyway.

i can imagine if Moyes doesn't want him to go he will have a word with him.
The thing is though its just rumour mongering and we know jack **** until something happens or not.

The thing that struck me was how suddenly our new signing was announced. Not a word of it broke before the announcement.

If they managed to keep that so hush-hush, what else are they up to behind the scenes? Hopefully, a hell of a lot!
