Sunderland will keep tabs on the free agent market now the transfer window has closed - but Kristjaan Speakman says the Black Cats do not 'need' any more additions. Sunderland were trying to bring in more reinforcements on deadline day, but did not manage to get any deals over the line.
But, while the club will see which out-of-contract players are still available, sporting director Speakman insists he and new head coach Tony Mowbray are happy with the squad they currently have, and there are no gaps they are desperate to fill. "We are not picking at the free agent market like 'we've got to find a player'," said Speakman.
"Naturally, we'll pick it up like we did last year and see who is available, but we don't need any [more] players. At the same time, we are always vigilant and if we can improve, then we'll always want to improve."
