Sunderland boss Martin O'Neill plans to offload Frazier Campbell and Titus Bramble next month.
The Mirror says the Black Cats chief will sell former England striker Campbell for the right price, with Championship sides on alert about a potential £1.5 million deal in January.
And centre half Bramble, out of contract in the summer, can also go for a knock-down fee next month if he can find a club to offer him his king-sized wages.
