Newell's Old Boys go for Sunderland duo Ustari and Scocco

Newell's Old Boys have swooped for Sunderland goalkeeper Oscar Ustari.

The Sunderland Echo says Ustari is poised to sign an 18-month deal at Argentine outfit Newell's Old Boys - the club who are bidding to sign compatriot Nacho Scocco.

Ustari left the Stadium of Light at the end of last season following the conclusion of his short-term contract on Wearside, after joining as cover for Vito Mannone in the January transfer window.

Meanwhile, Scocco's agent has arrived on Wearside for talks over the 29-year-old's future and has come armed with an offer from Newell's.
