CONNOR Wickham has been given the go-ahead to move to the Championship on a short-term loan deal after dropping down the pecking order following the arrival of Danny Graham, writes Chris Young.
Wickham has made significant strides this season and Martin OâNeill is anxious to ensure that progress is not halted by a lack of first-team action after Sunderlandâs attacking ranks were boosted by the £5million deadline day capture of Graham.
The emergency loan window for Football League clubs opened yesterday and several sides have made enquiries about taking Wickham, who could potentially depart Wearside as early as today.
