The Black Cats will be looking to build on their fine start to the season and bolster their ranks again after a transformative summer, with the club's recruitment department working to scout potential targets under Florent Ghisolfi and Kristjaan Speakman.

Le Bris joins the process ahead of a window to give his views on priority positions and potential targets, which will begin next month.

His views will continue to be shaped in the coming weeks, as opportunities for those who haven't necessarily featured regularly up until this point grow.

"It's a little early for me [to think about January] because right now, my main focus is on this squad," Le Bris said.
