Sunderland in ongoing talks to seal record transfer – Player wants move to happen
Yesterday at 03:23 AM
Belgium club Westerlo have brought in two forwards in the January transfer window, Isa Sakamoto and Islam Slimani, and that means there’s a higher chance of one of their existing players leaving.
The end of the working week saw Sunderland strongly linked with a move for Matija Frigan, with reports of interest from the Championship club coming from both Hungary and Belgium.
Saturday’s edition of Gazet van Antwerpen reports the 21-year-old is on the ‘radar’ of Sunderland, although the whole thing seems a little more serious than that.
Sunderland are said to have been keen on the youngster for quite a while, with their interest even dating to back to when he was playing in Croatia with HNK Rijeka.
Frigan is presented as being keen on a move to English football, and talks are said to be ongoing for the transfer to happen in the coming days.
The move, and current offer, is based on a loan with a mandatory €15m transfer if Sunderland seal promotion to the Premier League.
