Simon Grayson reveals Sunderland's thoughts on signing free agent striker
Sunderland have been linked with a move for an out-of-contract forward after failing to add a goalscorer to their ranks before the transfer window shut.
The Black Cats have struggled for goals in the first month of the season, and Lewis Grabban's hamstring injury on Tuesday night was a further blow.

Duncan Watmore is coming back to fitness after a knee injury, while youngsters Joel Asoro and Josh Maja could also be options for Grayson.
When asked if there were any free agents available that Sunderland could sign, Grayson said: "If there is, everyone else will be looking at them as well.
"Most of the players will have been taken on already but that's not to say we're not looking around.

"Hopefully key players will be coming back and that will improve us at the top end of the pitch."
