Former PNE captain linked with Stadium of Light switch

Sunderland are now being linked with a swoop for ex-Preston North End captain Alan Browne. The Irishman left Deepdale after 10-and-a-half years this summer, upon the expiry of his PNE contract. He made 412 appearances for the Lilywhites and won Player of the Year twice - including last season. The Republic of Ireland international has been linked with Sheffield United, Coventry City and, more recently, Turkish club Goztepe.

Browne, 29, is said to have visited the city while pondering his next move. The initial discussions were ‘positive’ - according to the Northern Echo. Midfield is an area the Black Cats are targeting this summer, as the ex-Lorient coach looks to boost his squad with experience. Corry Evans left the club at the end of the season and former Sheffield United man Oliver Norwood has also been looked at, reportedly.
