Sunderland Consider Move For Man City Outcast

Sunderland boss Steve Bruce has admitted he could make a move for Man City outcast Craig Bellamy as his tenth signing of the summer, according to the Metro.

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has confirmed that Craig Bellamy, as well as Emmanuel Adebayor, will not feature in his plans for the new season,

The Black Cats could make the Welshman their latest signing having already snapped up players such as Manchester United's Wes Brown and John O'Shea in recent months.

The departure of Steed Malbranque means that Bruce has a bit more cash to play with and he has indicated that he may move for Bellamy.

'I haven't got a wide left player, not a natural one, although we've got people who can play there, so we'll see,' he said.

'We're all looking at Manchester City because they've got some great players who can't even get in the squad.

'Craig Bellamy is a possibility. He can play wide left and up front so we'll see.'

The striker was previously linked to both Cardiff City and Celtic, although reports suggest he was not keen on a return to the Scottish side after being sent there on loan on for the second half of the 2004-05 season.

He spent all of the last campaign at Cardiff after falling out of favour at Man City.

Last week, Bruce hinted that there could be some more departures from the Stadium of Light in the near future.
