Sunderland face competition from Newcastle United in their reported interest in Matias Soulé, with the Roma attacker linked with a move away this summer.
TEAMtalk has reported that Newcastle are competing with Sunderland for the 23-year-old. The link does not confirm a bid or an agreement from either club.
Roma are reportedly seeking attacking reinforcements and could need to sell players to raise funds. Soulé has been presented as a player who can create chances for teammates and score goals himself.
Newcastle have sold multiple players this summer and are said to need more quality in the squad. The report also states that they have not properly replaced Anthony Gordon. Sunderland, meanwhile, had an impressive season following promotion and secured European football, increasing the need for a deeper squad across multiple competitions.
Sunderland are looking at multiple attacking options, according to the report, and it remains unclear which player they will ultimately sign. Soulé is therefore one of several names under consideration rather than a confirmed signing.
Roma are not expected to sell Soulé cheaply, and the report suggests that Newcastle or Sunderland would need to pay a premium to complete a deal. No specific fee, valuation or contract length has been reported.
