Sunderland have been linked with a Premier League striker since losing to Stoke City in the FA Cup this weekend.
Sunderland has been linked with a bid for Southampton striker Brereton Diaz.
The Black Cats lost the FA Cup to Stoke City at the Stadium of Light on Saturday afternoon, before reports surfaced linking the Wearsiders with a loan deal for the former Blackburn Rovers and Nottingham Forest attacker.
The Chile international has been bought twice for £7 million, bringing his total career value to £14 million, and a report from Sky Sports has linked Sunderland and others with a deal.
According to Sky, Sheffield United, Sunderland, and Blackburn all want Brereton Diaz on loan, but the Saints want an obligation to buy him included in any deal that occurs if any of those clubs is promoted from the Championship.
“Diaz is believed to be keen on re-joining Sheffield United but it is only Sunderland who have so far indicated they are willing to agree to the obligation clause and so a move has yet to materialise.”
