Sunderland are eyeing a double midfielder swoop in a La Liga transfer raid, with the Black Cats reportedly considering a move for Neom midfielder Amadou Kone. The 21-year-old has caught the eye with a series of energetic performances in the Middle East since joining the Saudi Pro League last year. Sunderland and Nottingham Forest are both monitoring Kone ahead of potential summer moves, with AS Roma also said to be keen on the player. In addition, Sunderland have made enquiries about FC Lorient talent Arthur Avom, who is a Cameroonian international with 14 senior caps to his name. Avom has been linked with the Black Cats more than once in recent months and has spoken about his personal ambitions to play at the very highest level of the professional game. Meanwhile, Barcelona are said to be willing to sanction an exit for highly rated forward Roony Bardghji this summer, with several Premier League clubs, including Sunderland, mentioned as potential suitors. The 20-year-old Sweden international signed for the La Liga giants from Danish outfit FC Copenhagen last year but has struggled to make a consistent impact in Catalonia.
