Sunderland are on the lookout for a loan move to bolster their attacking options, with a Premier League striker catching their eye despite recently joining his current club.
The Black Cats kicked off their Championship campaign with a solid 2-0 win over Cardiff City, providing optimism for manager Regis Le Bris and the fans that this season could be a successful one. However, they still need to add more firepower upfront, especially after missing out on Tottenham’s Dane Scarlett, who opted for a loan move to Oxford United.
It’s understood that Sunderland are targeting two additional strikers before the transfer window shuts – a talented young prospect and an experienced veteran. Recent reports suggest that they have set their sights on a new potential addition to meet the young forward requirement.

Sunderland transfer news
Sunderland has been relatively quiet in the transfer market, with just four free agent signings so far, including the likes of Alan Browne, Ian Poveda, and Simon Moore. The club is now eyeing a deal for a Premier League striker to add more depth to the squad.
Sky Sports’ Keith Downie reports that Bournemouth striker Daniel Jebbison is under consideration by Sunderland as they aim to strengthen their forward line. Despite Jebbison’s recent move to Bournemouth, he is set to be loaned out this summer, and Sunderland views him as a player who can bring speed and strength to their attack.
Jebbison impressed during his loan spell at Burton Albion, scoring seven goals in 20 games. Although his scoring record in the Championship is modest with one goal and one assist in 24 appearances, Sunderland sees potential in the young forward.
Daniel Jebbison’s record in the Championship
The 21-year-old showcased his talents during his loan spell at Burton Albion, where he made an impact in League One. Following his return to Sheffield United, he struggled to secure a regular starting role but gained valuable experience in the Championship. With just one goal and one assist to his name in 24 games, Jebbison will be hoping for more opportunities to shine at Sunderland if a loan move materializes.
