Sunderland chasing Bobby Zamora

Sunderland chasing Bobby Zamora

14 January 2012 - 07:42

Sunderland manager Martin O'Neill could raid Premier League rivals Fulham for striker Bobby Zamora. O'Neill is on the lookout for a new striker and has a transfer fund of around 25m GBP to spend on new players in January.

  • Chelsea quoted price to sign Igor Thiago
  • Chelsea make Joao Pedro transfer decision
  • Zamora currently has a contract until 2014 with the Cottagers, but the striker is desperate to force his way into Fabio Capello's England squad for Euro 2012, and could make a move elsewhere to ensure the guarantee of a place in Poland and Ukraine this summer.<br />

    O'Neill has been discussing transfer targets with his chairman Ellis Short and his scouts, and has apparently decided that striker Bobby Zamora would be the best suited for his squad.<br />

    So far this year, Sunderland have struggled in the attacking department; with Asamoah Gyan taking a year long loan to the Middle East; whilst on loan striker Nicklas Bendtner has so far struggled for form.
