Sunderland offer for Jozy Altidore rejected


Sunderland have had a bid rejected for USA international Jozy Altidore, the 23-year-old forward currently playing for AZ Alkamaar. It is understood that the Black Cats made an 8 million Euro bid for the striker.

Paolo Di Canio is a big fan of the player, who has already experienced the Premier League in his short loan spell with Hull City.


"Sunderland is a team that is interested in Jozy and that's pretty much where it stands now," AZ's director of football, Earnest Stewart, said. "They've made a bid for him.


"We're still in the same situation but if someone comes in with the right price, that's the way football works."
