Mackems To Offer What Toon Couldn't?
Although Chris Hughton was "very interested" in veteran former England international defender Sol Campbell last season ... Mike Ashley would not consider a deal because of Campbell's high wages. However ... rumour today suggests Sunderland are believed to have entered preliminary talks with the Arsenal player. Campbell spent the end of last season with Arsenal but is now a free-agent and has reportedly begun talks with Sunderland boss Steve Bruce. The 35-year-old is also wanted by Celtic ... but there is still a chance he could agree a new deal with Arsenal.
