Sources within the darkest corridors of Sunderland tell us that a call was placed this a few hours ago enquiring after the goal machine that is …Charles N’Zogbia.
The former Newcastle hit-man was once described by Magpie manager at the time Joe Kinear as ‘Charles Insomnia.’
There is no doubt that Bruce will have to find someone to fill the gap left by Dent and it would make sense that Bruce went for a player who new the Premiership and could ‘hit the ground running.’
The fee is almost certainly to be around the £8M mark. This would still leave Sunderland with enough money to strengthen further in the summer when wider choice will be available.
A spanner in the works is the possibility that Liverpool could nip and tempt the player first.
A recent sighting of Kenny Dalglish got The People suggesting this as a plan, but whilst this might be a dream move for the Frenchman, I’m struggling to see N’Zogbia as a Dalglisg signing.
Not long to wait now, either way!
