"Sunderland are in talks to sign Ajax striker Brian Brobbey and have agreed an initial loan deal for RB Leipzig defender Lutsharel Geertruida. The newly promoted Premier League side want to sign a forward after Chelsea opted to recall loanee Marc Guiu as cover for Liam Delap, who has sustained a hamstring injury. Brobbey, 23, could move to the Stadium of Light for a reported 21.6m."
"Meanwhile, Sunderland have agreed an initial loan with an option to buy for his Dutch compatriot Geertruida, subject to the 25-year-old completing a medical on Monday. Geertruida who is primarily a right-back, played 35 matches for Leipzig last season but is being allowed to leave the German club just a year after joining from Feyenoord. He is expected to become Sunderland's 13th signing of the summer, adding to new defenders like Nordi Mukiele, Omar Alderete, Reinildo Mandava and Arthur Masuaku"
"Sunderland have already spent 141.5m in the transfer window, which is just short of Nottingham Forest's 142m in the summer of 2022, a British record for a promoted club. They have also signed midfielder Habib Diarra for a club record 30m from Strasbourg, winger Simon Adingra from Brighton for 20.5m and midfielder Granit Xhaka from Bayer Leverkusen for 17.3m.
