Sunderland duo are being tracked by big guns
NOAH Sadiki and Enzo Le Fee are being tracked by top Premier League clubs – and Sunderland face a battle to keep them.
It means the Black Cats are facing a potential £100m summer raid with interest in the midfield duo.
Sadiki is attracting strong attention across the division, with Chelsea leading the race and Manchester United also credited with firm interest. The 21-year-old DR Congo international joined Sunderland from Union Saint-Gilloise for around £15million last summer and has enjoyed an impressive debut Premier League campaign.
It has been claimed that Chelsea have been in touch with Sadiki’s agent. His valuation is understood to be around £45m, with Sunderland sure to want more which could potentially be the club’s biggest sale.
Arsenal are also said to be tracking Sadiki, while Tottenham and Everton are among a number of clubs keeping a close eye on his development.
Alongside Sadiki, Sunderland could also face a battle to retain French magician Le Fée. Clubs competing for Champions League qualification – including Liverpool – are keeping tabs on the 26-year-old’s situation. Le Fée has been one of Sunderland’s most influential performers, consistently impressing with his technical quality and composure.
There is bound to be interest in other Sunderland players too after they have gone way beyond expectations this season, with keeper Robin Roefs known to be an admirer of Chelsea who have already been reported as willing to splash out £50m on the Dutchman.
