Ian Burchnall eyes new signing as Sunderland make Notts County transfer decision

Anthony Patterson will not be returning to Notts County after all as he is still needed by parent club Sunderland.

The goalkeeper's loan spell at Meadow Lane was curtailed after Sunderland stoppers Lee Burge and Thorben Hoffman tested positive for Covid-19.
