Le Bris confirmed last week that Sunderland are targeting a versatile forward rather than an out-and-out striker.

One player who has been linked in the last week is former Middlesbrough forward Chuba Akpom, who will be allowed to leave Ajax this month.

But Leicester City and Marseille are also now said to be keeping tabs on the ex-Arsenal youngster's situation. Akpom is thought to have been one of the attackers in Sunderland's thinking but there was always an acceptance it would be a difficult deal to do given the finances that would be involved and the competition from elsewhere. Reports from the Netherlands also claimed Akpom would be reluctant to return to the Championship.
 
He still is the backup left winger behind Le Fee right now though. We won't see Mundle or Watson properly until March I don't think.

We currently have Isidor, Mayenda and Roberts who can properly occupy the 3 forward spots. Then Poveda if he's fit and Le Fee and Aouchiche who are out of position there. It's not well stocked at all.
Mundle and Watson back any day. Aleksic can play wide left too.

Well stocked
