Sunderland have seen a number of their players linked with moves away from the Stadium of Light.

Jack Ross has told the Chronicle that Sunderland do not want to sell any players in January.

Sunderland have a range of players being linked with moves away from the Stadium of Light, with Josh Maja particularly in demand.

However, Ross insists that Sunderland have no interest in losing any of their best players this month, as they only want to strengthen their squad.

He said: “If we do any business in January I would want it to be to supplement what we have, not to replace any players.”

Sunderland are currently locked in a battle for an automatic promotion space, so it is understandable that big changes are not being talked about at the Stadium of Light.

The Black Cats seem to have finally stopped their negative spiral of results, and have steadied themselves in League One.

Ross’ side are third place in the table, but they have two games in hand over Portsmouth and Luton Town, who are ahead of them.

Sunderland are next in action tomorrow, when they take on Charlton Athletic at the Valley.
