Sunderland are reportedly willing to consider offers for 23-year-old defender Dennis Cirkin in January - but only if their valuation is met.

Dennis Cirkin in action for Sunderland last season.

Cirkin, who joined the Black Cats from Tottenham Hotspur in 2021, is reportedly attracting interest from his former club, with Spurs said to be closely monitoring the situation ahead of the winter transfer window.

The London side inserted a sell-on clause when he moved to Wearside, and have been repeatedly linked with bringing the left-back back to north London.

A report claims that Bournemouth have reportedly made initial enquiries to establish whether Sunderland would be open to a sale.

The Premier League club are believed to be assessing several left-back options and view Cirkin as a player with long-term potential if he can return to full fitness.
