Sunderland are understood to have launched a bid to sign Charlton's Andy Reid.

The Black Cats have failed with numerous bids to land Stephen Hunt from Reading and manager Roy Keane now looks to have turned his attentions elsewhere.

The 25-year-old, who can operate down the left or through the midfield similar to Hunt, has been a key figure for The Addicks this season and has played 23 times.

However, Sunderland's offer - believed to be around £4million - could be too good for Charlton to turn down.

Charlton paid Tottenham £3million for Reid in 2006, after he failed to make the expected impact at White Hart Lane following his move from Nottingham Forest.
