    I sincerely hope that if we are going to sign a striker, it's not dependant on his sale. If so, you can see this going to the end of the window and leaving us no time. In the meantime, apart from the above Spurs story, there doesn't seem to be anyone interested.

    That will be him bounced about on loan until his contract expires and he's released back to the league he's done well in this season. It's different for strikers. They're always better off with continuity once they break through. Any contract except a new Sunderland contract will be his undoing I reckon.

    I wonder how much more they've offered him than we did. I usually associate French clubs with not having much cash but to be fair I know rien about the league.

    By refusing to sign the contract on offer, he HAD to go!!!

    If he wanted to be here he would’ve signed!!

    Cannot see how Bordeaux will be paying much more than us.

    We have tried our best to persuade him but to no avail - so we’ve done the right thing in getting rid. Personally I think he’s made a huge mistake.

    Think he will now disappear IMO, tho I hope we’ve negotiated a sell on clause just in case.

    Onwards & Upwards - I’m sure we will get a suitable replacement in, even if it’s a loan,

    French league isn't to poor league it once was so he'll be getting paid fairly well.

    Didn't they strike a TV deal with a Middle Eastern TV company off the back of the PSG ownership?

    It was poor to squirm after the deadline was set. He was never going to sign, it was clear. So much for the pisstake ending. Piss well and truly took and we look like fools. Not turning on Stu in the slightest but he has to learn from this
