Sunderland make move for the Sheffield United target Chris Wilder stayed quiet on
Sheffield United had been linked with a move for Tom Cannon and Sunderland have reportedly made a bid
Sunderland have entered the race to sign Leicester City striker Tom Cannon after Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder ‘played a Geoffrey Boycott’ when asked about his side’s links with the player.
Reports on Monday suggested that the Championship’s high-flyers have moved to fill a gap up front that has effectively exited since they sold Ross Srewart to Southampton last year. It was reported that Sunderland had tabled a £5million bid for the Republic of Ireland international.
Cannon has struggled for gametime since moving to Leicester from Everton, after a very successful loan spell at Preston in the second half of the 2022/23 season.
