Robert Snodgrass and Simon Grayson have already worked together, and Sunderland should now make a move for the West Ham United man.
With Sunderland appointing Simon Grayson as their new manager, one of his first priorities will be reshaping the squad at the Stadium of Light.
Grayson will be looking to make up for lost time this summer, as he aims to prepare Sunderland’s team for the season ahead.
There is widespread recognition that the Black Cats will be required to make wholesale changes if they are to compete for promotion in the upcoming campaign.
And the Daily Express have suggested that Sunderland have £20 million to spend on new players.
The Black Cats are likely to want to strengthen in most positions, and one player who could emerge on Grayson’s wishlist is Robert Snodgrass.
Grayson worked with Snodgrass at Leeds United, and he was a huge fan of the Scotland international during their time together at Elland Road.
Snodgrass has proven on countless occasions to be a major threat in the Championship, and the Black Cats would be making a very smart move by bringing the 29-year-old winger in to improve their attacking options.
