West Ham United have been linked with a move for Sunderland defender Phil Bardsley.
The former Manchester United defender's contract expires this summer and Sunderland look likely to be relegated from the Premier League.
Hammers boss Sam Allardyce is thought to be keen on trying to bring Bardsley to Upton Park for next season.
