Former Sunderland striker Connor Wickham searching for fourth club in a year

Former Sunderland striker Connor Wickham is on the lookout for a new club. The 30-year-old has been released by the Black Cats' Championship rivals Cardiff City.

Wickham, who signed for Sunderland in a £6m deal from Ipswich Town in 2011, only arrived in Wales in February on a short-term arrangement. He scored just once in 12 appearances.

Prior to that he had enjoyed a goalscoring renaissance, hitting nine in 20 for Forest Green Rovers before leaving midway through the campaign. Wickham is one of four players leaving Cardiff, along with Dillon Phillips, Gavin Whyte and Tom Sang.
