Sunderland AFC transfers: Your new-look starting XI and squad if the gossip is true - photo gallery

We’re now at the end January transfer window with Sunderland still eyeing a striker.

The Black Cats have been linked with several players in a variety of positions but have now signed Pierre Ekwah from West Ham and Isaac Lihadji from Lille alongside Joe Gelhardt from Leeds United. However, the position of striker remains a priority after Ellis Simms was recalled by Everton.

With that in mind, we take a look at how Sunderland’s matchday squad COULD look if the transfer rumours so far turn out to be true and if everyone is fit and available to Tony Mowbray for selection.
