He has tried to sign him twice before, but failed, but is Alan Pardew ready to make it "third time lucky"?

Steve Bruce wants to sign Seb Larsson for a THIRD time and is eyeing up a swoop for the Sunderland midfielder in January.

But, now that the Swedish international midfielder is open to offers (and is happy in the North-East) could Pardew finally get his man?

Hull boss Bruce is keen to add Larsson to his squad to boost the Tigers' Premier League survival chances.

Larsson, 28, is set to out of contract at the Stadium of Light in June and has yet to open talks on a new deal.

Suggesting he could be available for as little as £1m - even though he is valued at £5m.

Former Birmingham boss Bruce paid Arsenal £1million to bring Larsson to St Andrew’s six years ago, following a successful four-month loan.

Then, as Sunderland manager, Bruce signed him on a Bosman in July 2011.
