Ross Stewart a reported transfer target for Premier League relegation strugglers

Sunderland's Ross Stewart is a transfer target for Premier League relegation candidates Norwich City, according to reports. The 25-year-old striker is League One's top scorer this season with 22 goals so far, with that form rewarded with a call-up to the Scotland squad where he is currently away on international duty.

It has also attracted attention from a number of clubs in the Championship, with Swansea City showing interest during the January transfer window, and now The Sun claims that Norwich are also keeping tabs on Stewart. But Stewart, who joined the Black Cats from Scottish Premiership side Ross County in January 2021, is under contract until the end of next season.

And when his move to Wearside was confirmed, it was announced that he had joined on an 'initial' two-and-a-half year contract, with the club holding an option to extend his stay by another 12 months which would mean until the summer of 2024. Despite that security, Sunderland are keen to offer Stewart improved terms to reflect the impact that he has made south of the Border.
