Sunderland boss Paolo di Canio is chasing Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone.
Di Canio admitted yesterday he was seeking an 'English central midfielder'.
The Daily Star says he is likely to launch another bid to sign Huddlestone, having enquired about him early last month, only for the two clubs' valuations of the player to be way apart.
