Sunderland join Jelle Vossen chase

Sunderland have reportedly joined the chase to sign Genk striker Jelle Vossen.

The 23-year-old Belgian has scored seven goals in 11 games this season after finding the net 22 times during the previous campaign.

However, the Black Cats may have to battle it out with Everton for the forward's signature, according to talkSPORT.

Vossen signed his first professional contract with Genk in 2009 following a two-year spell in their youth academy.
