Sunderland defender Nyron Nosworthy is understood to have held talks with Town, Reading and Crystal Palace, while Sheffield United striker Ched Evans is again linked with the Blues as well as Cardiff City, but with Middlesbrough said to be the favourites for his signature.

Nosworthy, who spent the last season and a half playing alongside Evans on loan at Bramall Lane, was previously mentioned in connection with Town three weeks ago and may have been the player manager Paul Jewell was due to speak to just over a week ago.

The 30-year-old, targeted by his former boss Roy Keane during his time at Portman Road, still has a season remaining on his contract but the Black Cats will allow the former Gillingham full-back or centre-half to leave on a free transfer.

Evans, 22, was linked with the Blues a month ago having been another player who interested Town during Roy Keane’s time in charge.

Tony Mowbray’s Middlesbrough are reportedly the favourites to land the £1.2 million-priced Welsh international frontman, who is also believed to be on Cardiff’s hitlist.

Elsewhere, Watford are reported to have accepted an increased £3.5 million bid from Swansea for striker Danny Graham, who had previously been linked with the Blues.

staboblade added 11:49 - Jun 5 Hi guys,Blades fan here. It will be a huge mistake if you sign Nosworthy,the guy was known as bomb scare by Blades fans.At CB he was a complete nightmare and at RB he was caught out too often...Steer clear! As for Evans,he's an ok striker for the CCC BUT, and for me is why i want him to move on, he's injury prone and takes a long time to recover.This isn't good for a young lad and i can only see it getting worse as he gets older.I've also read that he's on £18,000 a week and for me that's a lot of money being paid out for a player to sit on the treatment table half the season. To be honest,you have better already so i hope you are not tempted with either player. Good luck for next season guys, hope you are up there!

dirtydingusmagee added 12:58 - Jun 5 linked, links , and missing links.It is becoming painfully obvious that we going to fail in transfer market, we'll be scrapping that proverbial barrel come August, I was happy to see Jewell come in as manager, but he will be tied up by same probs we have had for past couple of seasons. Prem .........forget it .

fourth added 17:32 - Jun 5 There is an ITFC credibility gap at the moment. Not much commitment from anyone. Fundamentally we don't have enough cash to put in place 2 essential players to encourage others to arrive on reasonable terms. Sometimes it's worth spending money to save. The owners don't have the commitment or the money.
