Sunderland may return with an improved offer for striker Steven Fletcher, offering Connor Wickham on loan in exchange.
Wickham has struggled to make an impact at Sunderland since joining last summer.
Martin O'Neill is also reported to be chasing Swansea winger Scott Sinclair and one of his former employees at Celtic.
There is also news on the rumoured bid for Tottenham winger Aaron Lennon.
