Sunderland set to make January move for Norwich striker Steven Naismith
SUNDERLAND are keeping tabs on Steven Naismith and will make a move for the Scottish striker in January.
David Moyes tried to bring in Naismith from Norwich before the transfer window closed, but failed to get the deal over the line.

However with the 30-year-old seemingly out of Canaries boss Alex Neil’s first-team plans, a move to the Stadium of Light could materialise when the window re-opens.
Naismith hasn’t even made the 18 for Norwich’s two games against Cardiff City and Wigan.
