One player Sunderland could sign before September 2nd

Name: Papy Djilobodji
Position: Centre back
Club: Nantes

Sunderland really haven’t started well with two losses and a draw, and here it is more a question of what Dick Advocaat doesn’t need as opposed to what he does. It could be said that The Black Cats have to strengthen in several areas if they are to avoid the drop this season, as well as keep hold of key players that can win games for them. It has already been rumoured that Jermain Defoe could be on his way after he has already scored twice this season, however it is clear they are lacking any real quality at the heart of their defence. Nantes and Senegal defender Papy Djilobodji has been linked and would be a sound addition. Although most would do better than those to have played so far this term.
