Sunderland in talks for Gladbach goalkeeper Jonas Omlin in January window

Sunderland are hoping to sign Borussia Monchengladbach goalkeeper Jonas Omlin during the January transfer window. According to a report from Pete O’Rourke, the club have already opened talks with the German side, and it remains to be seen whether an agreement can be reached before the window closes.

Omlin has struggled for regular opportunities at Gladbach and is currently behind Moritz Nicolas in the pecking order. The Swiss international is yet to play a single minute for the Bundesliga club, and the report said he will be desperate for a move as he looks to get his career back on track with consistent match action.

Sunderland are looking to add more depth and quality to the squad so they can sustain their current run of form until the end of the season. The report added that Sunderland are in the top half of the Premier League table and will be looking to remain there through the campaign, describing it as an outstanding season so far after securing promotion.

The report said Sunderland have brought in multiple quality players this season, which has led to impressive performances, and it remains to be seen whether they can add Omlin to that group. Omlin, 32, is described as a player with extensive experience, and the report suggested he could be a useful acquisition if Sunderland can complete the deal.
