Phil Smith has reported Alan Nixon’s story


Sunderland have made an ambitious move to sign Strasbourg midfielder Habib Diarra.

The 21-year-old is known to be on Sunderland's transfer shortlist as they look to replace Jobe Bellingham following his club-record move to Borussia Dortmund. According to Alan Nixon, the club have now made a bid for the midfielder and are looking to strike a deal that could be in excess of £30 million.

Diarra is expected to leave Strasbourg this summer and sources have indicated that his preference is for a move to the Premier League. However, Sunderland still face significant competition as Leeds United are known to be interest in a deal. Brighton and Everton have also been credited with an interest.

Sunderland have been stepping up their transfer efforts this week ahead of the players returning for pre-season testing next Friday, and are in talks with OGC Nice as they look to recruit goalkeeper Marcin Bulka. Though reports earlier today that a deal has been agreed are understood to be premature, there is a growing belief that Sunderland can reach an agreement. As reported by transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, the player is open to the move. Bulka is well known to Sunderland’s incoming director of football Florent Ghisolfi, who worked with him during his spell as sporting director at the Ligue 1 club.

As per Sky Sports, the two clubs are still in negotiations as of Friday afternoon. While OGC Nice have set an asking price of around €20 million, talks are ongoing to see if a deal can be struck. Bulka’s arrival could transpire to be a new club record deal, eclipsing the fee spent earlier this summer to turn Enzo Le Fée’s loan from AS Roma into a permanent deal. Le Fée will officially become a Sunderland player on July 1st.

Dynamo Kyiv striker Vladyslav Vanat and Sassuolo forward Armand Laurienté are other potential summer targets.

 

He’s been around Copley & paste too long

 

I agree. I just hope when he is in the team folk and clamouring to get somebody else in instead because of a price tag, or he needs resting etc. The lad is the best I have ever seen come through our academy, be a footballing tragedy if his development is stalled because of lack of game time. Footballers develop through game time, Jobe being the prime example. Rigg will be so much better next season, after this last one.

 

interesting he didn’t bother doing this for Bulka
