Sunderland are moving for Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart.

The Daily Mail says Hart will be offered the chance to end his Manchester City hell by signing a loan deal at Sunderland.

David Moyes needs a goalkeeper with Vito Mannone ruled out for at least three months after damaging elbow ligaments in training and is keen to take the England international on a season-long loan.

Sunderland would guarantee Hart first-team action, but the two-time Premier League champion is understood to have reservations about joining a club likely to be in a relegation battle.
