Frustrated: Cavenaghi (right) wants more games[LNB]Bordeaux won't stand in the way of unsettled striker Fernando Cavenaghi leaving for Sunderland. [LNB]Steve Bruce is looking to add more firepower before the transfer window closes and has enquired about Carlton Cole at West Ham and Tottenham's Peter Crouch.[LNB] Sunderland are set to complete the £1million signing of Uganda international John Utaka from Portsmouth but another forward is still expected to join and Cavenaghi is in contention. [LNB]The 26-year-old is not guaranteed a start for Bordeaux, but they have offered him a new contract and would be reluctant to lose him for nothing next summer if he refuses.[LNB] Bordeaux president Jean-Louis Triaud said: 'His agent has told me that he is concerned by his lack of games. He is right to feel like that, but we can't guarantee games to anyone. [LNB]'We are in talks about a new deal and we are trying to reach an agreement. But anything could happen, he might stay or he might leave. [LNB]'If he can find something somewhere else that satisfies him, he could leave. But for now he is at Bordeaux and he is not going anywhere yet.'
