BEST NEWS: Regis Le Bris most wanted Striker now set to Betray Sunderland EFL rivals after recent Transfer twist as striker aim closer to Stadium of Light before Transfer window shutdown.
Sunderland are aiming to make a few last-minute signings before tonight’s 11 pm transfer deadline.
One key area of focus is the striker position, as Sunderland continues their search for a crucial number nine.
Regis Le Bris’ side has been linked with several attacking options today, but the name that has garnered the most attention is Orban.
According to Sunderland Nation, the striker is eager to join Sunderland, and there’s a strong possibility that a deal could be finalized today.
**An Exciting Prospect**
Orban would be a great addition to Sunderland’s squad. While the Lyon striker hasn’t quite found his footing since moving to Ligue 1, he has an impressive track record in other parts of his career.
Orban has played in Norway, Belgium, and France. He began his senior career in Norway, scoring 19 goals and providing seven assists in 24 matches across all competitions. A move to KAA Gent followed, where he registered 32 goals in 52 games, eventually earning a big transfer to Lyon.
A loan move seems like the best option for Orban at this stage, allowing him to gain consistent playing time this season, and he should have no trouble performing well in the Championship.
**A Long Season Ahead**
Sunderland currently sits at the top of the league, having won their first three Championship games without conceding a goal. While they are bound to face challenges at some point, it will be interesting to see how they respond and whether they can maintain a strong run throughout the season to push for promotion.
As the deadline approaches, it could be an exciting few hours for Sunderland, with plenty of potential movement expected before 11 pm.
Sunderland’s next match is a trip to Fratton Park to face Portsmouth tomorrow. They will be up against another unbeaten team this weekend, and it will be intriguing to see which side comes out on top. Pompey has drawn all three of their games so far this season against top-six contenders and will be looking to secure a win in what could be a grudge match from both clubs’ time in League One.
