Sunderland have joined the race to sign Japanese left-back Keita Kosugi, according to reports.
The Black Cats are expected to be busy in the summer transfer window ahead of their long-awaited return to the Premier League, and it is widely understood that they could look to reinforce their backline over the coming months.
To that end, Kosugi is the latest name to be linked with a prospective move to the Stadium of Light, but Sunderland may need to fend off a number of high-profile rivals if they are to secure his signature.
What has been said about Sunderland’s reported interest in Keita Kosugi?
According to On The Minute, Sunderland are the latest side to take an interest in Kosugi, who currently plays for Swedish outfit Djurgarden IF. The 19-year-old predominantly operates as a left-back, but is also capable of playing on the opposite flank, and has already racked up 43 senior appearances – including a series of standout performances for his side in the Europa Conference League.
