Sunderland keen to trump Newcastle for Gomis

Sunderland fancy challenging Newcastle United for off contract Lyon striker Bafetimbi Gomis.

The Daily Mail says Newcastle have been regarded favourites to land Gomis, who is a free agent, after holding a long-term interest in the former Lyon striker.

However, just 24 hours after losing Jack Colback to their neighbours, Sunderland are ready to join the chase for Gomis as Gus Poyet looks to bring in a new striker to the Stadium of Light.
