Sunderland could forget about Rusyn by signing EFL goal machine
Sunderland supporters would have felt somewhat flat after watching their side’s latest pre-season outing, as the Black Cats succumbed to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of non-league neighbours Gateshead.
Jack Clarke scored in the run-out, but it was a disappointing day at the office for the Wearside outfit all the same, with Regis Le Bris keeping a closer eye now on what players he wants to keep and who he could potentially offload after viewing that loss.
Nazariy Rusyn, who has been linked with a switch away from Sunderland after just one lacklustre campaign, could find he’s out of the team when the new Championship season gets underway, especially if the Black Cats decide this move is necessary.
Sunderland could go back in for EFL ace
It had been widely reported previously that Sunderland, alongside a whole host of other EFL clubs, were eyeing up a move for Burnley attacker Scott Twine this transfer window.
However, all that talk has gone quiet now, with football journalist Alan Nixon stating via his social media recently, that no team interested in the 25-year-old ace had fielded a bid that has satisfied the Clarets.
