Sunderland prepare January swoop for Ignacio Scocco

02 January 2014 - 23:30

Sunderland are readying a move to sign Argentine striker Ignacio Scocco, according to football expert Tim Vickery.

  • Confirmed Man Utd line-up vs Liverpool, Matheus Cunha starts
  • Chelsea quoted price to sign Igor Thiago
  • The Black Cats failed on acquiring the services of the talented forward in the summer, as he made a switch to Brazilian outfit Internacional for a fee of £3.5million.<br />

    However, South American football expert Vickery has insisted that manager Gus Poyet will make a move for the 28-year-old in January, with the club desperate to add attacking recruits in the transfer window, as they aim to beat the drop zone against the odds.<br />

    Scocco has failed to replicated his goal-scoring exploits for Brazilian club this season, having scored just 4 goals in 21 games in the Campeonato Brasileiro so far.
