Alex Neil admits the transfer window is proving to be a 'waiting game' for Sunderland - with more signings in the pipeline, but nothing 'imminent'. The Black Cats have added six players over the summer, including two in Jack Clarke and Leon Dajaku who were on loan with the Wearsiders last term, but there are still key positions in the squad which need strengthening.
Neil says the club is still pursuing a number of long-term targets, but has also had to explore some other options where they could not get deals over the line. "We've had some long-term targets that we are still pursuing, we've had some targets that because the dynamics have changed we have had to move on from and on to others, and we have brought some players in," said Neil.
"Naturally, we would like to get everything done over the next 24-48 hours but the likelihood is that it will be much more drawn out than that. I don't expect anything imminently.
