Brendan Rodgers’s Celtic and West Bromwich Albion are reportedly interested in Sunderland’s Bryan Oviedo.
Sunderland man Bryan Oviedo is a player in demand, with the former Everton player reported to be on the radar of Celtic and West Bromwich Albion.
According to The Express & Star, West Brom in the Championship in England are interested in the left-back.
It has been reported that the 28-year-old, who can also operate as a left-sided midfielder, could arrive at The Hawthorns on loan on January transfer deadline day.
According to The Northern Echo, Celtic in the Scottish Premiership have identified Oviedo as a transfer target, with manager Brendan Rodgers looking at the left-back as a potential replacement for Kieran Teirney, who is injured at the moment.
Oviedo, though, has suggested that he is happy at Sunderland and does not plan to leave the Stadium of Light in the middle of the season.
The Chronicle quotes Oviedo as saying: “For the time being I remain with the team and I want to help the as much as I can for their promotion to the second division. Here I feel good and my family is comfortable.”
Promotion push
Sunderland are fifth in the Championship table at the moment with 53 points from 27 matches, nine points behind leaders Luton Town, who have played 30 games.
According to WhoScored, Oviedo has made nine starts and eight substitute appearances for the Black Cats so far this season, according to WhoScored.
