Keane eyes Saha loan swoop

Sunderland boss Roy Keane is being linked with a loan swoop for Manchester United striker Louis Saha.
The 29-year-old Frenchman has endured an injury-ravaged spell at Old Trafford following his big-money switch from Fulham in January 2004 and United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is believed to be willing to allow the striker to leave this summer.
Keane has turned his attention towards Saha after growing frustrated with his attempts to lure Darren Bent or Andy Johnson to the Stadium of Light.
Meanwhile, the Black Cats are close to finalising a deal to bring Romania international Dorin Goian to Wearside.
Goian's current club, Steaua Bucharest, are believed to want £4.5million for the defender.
He has spent almost four years at Steaua and scored against Middlesbrough in their 4-2 defeat in the 2006 UEFA Cup semi-final second leg.
Keane also continues to be linked with Reading duo Kevin Doyle and Stephen Hunt who have stated their intention to remain in the Premier League following the Royals' relegation last term.
