Ross Stewart unhappy with contract offer, Sunderland selling is a possibility - according to Sky Sports reporter

The Black Cats have been in talks with Stewart over fresh terms for some time but an agreement has not yet been reached. The Scot’s contract currently has 18 months left to run.

A host of clubs have been linked with the 26-year-old, who has scored nine Championship goals in 11 appearances this campaign, including Swansea City, Middlesbrough, Rangers, Crystal Palace and Brentford.

Speaking to The72, Downie said: “I’m told selling him remains a possibility this month. They’ve reached an impasse. As things stand, that’s the offer and it’s not good enough compared to what Stewart and his representatives are looking for.

“Although he wants to stay at the club, I don’t think he’s too happy with the offer. I think it’s a highly incentivised offer where he has to reach certain milestones or score certain amounts to get the top level figure.”
