January needs to be a very good month for the Sunderland fans in the Football Transfer Tavern...

The Black Cats currently sit at the bottom of the Premier League - and many of the punters in the Football Transfer Tavern have tipped them for relegation this season.

The only saving grace for David Moyes and his side is the January transfer window - and it would appear that the Scottish boss is looking to do all he can to prevent what is, at this point, seemingly inevitable.

According to the Daily Telegraph, Sunderland are looking to move for Leicester City striker Leonardo Ulloa - in a move that would undoubtedly improve the Sunderland attack.

Ulloa has been prolific for Leicester City - and a position alongside Defoe could work wonders for him.

With that said, this could be the new-look Sunderland 2017 frontline including Leonardo Ulloa....

 CAM - Adnan Januzaj

Adnan Januzaj has been in and out of the Sunderland first team this season, but the time has come for him to be given a regular run under David Moyes.

His talent cannot be doubted - and he has proven at points this season that he has all the potential in the world, but it is time for him to start showing it.

A role behind 2 strikers would be perfect for him - it would allow him to drive at defences, whilst he would also be able to utilise his excellent passing and dribbling to launch the ball forward for the likes of Ulloa.

He needs to start delivering week-after-week, and a run of games is the only way to make that happen.

 ST - Jermain Defoe

What can be said about Jermain Defoe that hasn't already been said?

If anyone is going to be able to prevent Sunderland from going down - it is Defoe.

The English veteran has been the one shining light for David Moyes this season, and despite now being in his 30's - he is as prolific as ever.

He needs to be in top form to have any chance of keeping Sunderland up - and a switch to a 2-man attack could allow that to happen.

 ST -  Leonardo Ulloa

Leonardo Ulloa is the only new signing in this attacking trio - and what a signing he would be.

The signing of Islam Slimani has seen his opportunities reduce at Leicester City this season - and a move to Sunderland in the twilight of his career could be the perfect move for him.

A partnership with Jermain Defoe could prove to be fruitful for Sunderland, as he formed quite the partnership with Vardy last season.

He can also bring the experience of his success last season to this faltering Sunderland side - and that could really help.
