Sunderland chasing Figueroa

Maynor Figueroa is on the hotlist of Sunderland according to reports. It is understood that the Wigan defender is being chased by his former coach Steve Bruce at the Black Cats.

Maynor Figueroa is valued in the region of £5.5 million by Wigan, and despite currently carrying an injury, the player is on the wanted list of the Black Cats.

Figueroa is also believed to be on the shortlist of Villarreal and Roma.

Wigan will be keen to keep hold of the full back who has put in a series of excellent displays over the last year.
