Sunderland close in on Wickham deal

Sunderland close in on Wickham deal

29 June 2011 - 08:01

Sunderland have agreed terms with Ipswich Town for star striker Connor Wickham, according to reports on Wednesday morning. It is understood a 9m GBP fee has been agreed.

  • Chelsea suffer double injury blow ahead of Villa trip
  • Gabriel Magalhaes to sign new Arsenal deal

  • Wickham is expected in Sunderland to thrash out personal terms and also undergo a medical with the Black Cats' medical team.



    Ipswich are reluctant to sell their star player though, with coach Paul Jewell saying: "We don't want to sell Connor Wickham, but if he wants to leave and the right offer comes in then we'll have to consider it.



    "But until then - Connor's never given me any indication he wants to leave - our backs aren't against the wall, we're in control of the situation."
