Sunderland set to launch final £12m bid for Dede

Sunderland are weighing up a final £12million plus Fabio Borini offer for Swansea’s Andre Ayew.

Black Cats boss Sam Allardyce insisted he’s ended his interest in the forward at his weekly media briefing on Thursday.

But the manager remains keen on singing Ayew and is ready to make one last offer to land the Ghana international.

Allardyce wants to bolster his forward options before Monday's deadline and Ayew is his prime target.
