Sunderland Football Club have set their sights on Alan Hutton.

The Scotland international fullback has failed to nail down a place in the Tottenham Hotspur side, due to rotten luck with injuries and a lack of form.

Harry Redknapp wants to take Anton Ferdinand from the Stadium of Light in the January window, and reports suggest the Black Cats are willing to listen to their offers.

The Sun claims Steve Bruce will ask the Londoners to include Hutton in part of the deal, and the 27-year-old could jump at the chance of regular first team football on Wearside.
