The Breakdown
Cheltenham are apparently holding out for a bid of £1.5 million has attracted interest from multiple clubs due to his outstanding season last year.
As it stands, Sunderland only have Chris Maguire and Josh Maja on the books as forwards and desperately need a striker to fire them to promotion next year.
A late bloomer, Eisa only made the step up to professional football last season following playing for Isthmian League Greenwich Borough.
Some might expect the striker to struggle but he excelled and was awarded the supporters’ and players’ ‘player of the year’. The club hasn’t got much to spend this summer but Stewart Donald needs to splash the cash to bring the forward in or risk not having any top class striker to play for the club this season.
Sunderland fans – thoughts?
