Euell out, Smicer in?

Sunderland have confirmed that they are interested in acquiring Charlton midfielder/striker Jason Euell. The Jamaican international has looked out of sorts at The Valley for some time and was reportedly the subject of an approach from Crystal Palace in the winter transfer window.

Meanwhile, out of contract Vladimir Smicer has confirmed that Charlton are 'really interested' in him. The 32-year old Czech ace has said that foreign clubs have expressed interest, but his family wants to stay in England. The main rivals for his signature are Birmingham City.
