"According to a report via the Sunderland Echo, Neil has been left out of the squad ahead of the Premier League match against West Ham United due to speculation surrounding his future. Several outfits are interested in signing the player, and it will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done. The midfielder is no longer a key player for Sunderland, and it would make sense for him to move on and join a club where he can play regularly."
"On the other hand, Masuaku is not a guaranteed starter for the newly promoted club either. He has been linked with a move away from Sunderland in recent months, and French outfit RC Lens are interested in securing his signature. The 32-year-old joined Sunderland last summer on a free transfer, and sitting on the bench at the English club does not make any sense for him. He will look to move on and play regularly at this stage of his career."
"They have done quite well in the Premier League this season, and they will look to finish in the top half of the table. They need to further improve the squad, and getting rid of fringe players could help them bring in fresh talent. Meanwhile, the two players will look to get their careers back on track, and the move would be ideal for them."
Sunderland are planning to move Dan Neil and Arthur Masuaku during the January transfer window because both are fringe players seeking regular playing time. Neil was left out of the squad before the West Ham match amid transfer speculation and faces interest from several clubs after losing a key role. Masuaku, 32, is not a guaranteed starter after joining on a free last summer and has attracted interest from RC Lens. Sunderland aim to finish in the Premier League top half and want to improve the squad by offloading peripheral players to fund incoming talent.
