Sunderland defender Danny Batth has been linked with a move to Blackburn Rovers.
Sunderland defender Danny Batth has been linked with a surprise move to Championship rivals Blackburn Rovers, according to reports.
However, Alan Nixon of The Sun on Sunday has claimed that the former Stoke City and Wolves defender could be the subject of transfer interest from Mowbray’s old club Blackburn Rovers.
Rovers missed out on the play-offs last campaign under the stewardship of one-time Newcastle United player Jon Dahl Tomasson.
Sunderland have just allowed Bailey Wright to exit the club. However, the Black Cats have added central defenders Nectar Triantis and Jenson Seelt to their ranks so far during the summer transfer window as Kristjaan Speakman looks to add depth to Sunderland’s squad.
Batth made 40 appearances for Sunderland in the Championship last year and won the fans’ Player of the Year award.
