Rumours are swirling around Malick Fofana, with Sunderland reportedly showing interest in the forward currently plying his trade at Lyon. With both teams looking to strengthen their squads, the move could have a massive impact on their seasons going forward. While Sunderland and Lyon continue talks, no breakthrough has been reported. Galatasaray, Roma and Bayern Munich reportedly may still have an interest, but currently the focus is on getting this deal across the line. In season 26/27, Sunderland are only scoring 1.0 goals per game (1 in 1), below the Premier League average. Malick Fofana would be brought in to give them more bite in the final third. Lyon have also been linked with Matt O'Riley and Lois Openda while Sunderland are reportedly monitoring Kevin Danso, Igor Paixao and Marc Casado Torras. Can't get enough Sunderland transfer rumours?
