Sunderland have reportedly stepped up their pursuit of Swansea City striker Danny Graham.
The 27-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Liberty Stadium and manager Michael Laudrup has failed to rule out an exit for the former Middlesbrough forward.
The Black Cats have been touted as a possible destination for Graham and Sky Sports News reports that they have placed an offer on the table to the Swans.
Recent reports have claimed that fellow Premier League outfit Aston Villa are prepared to offer £12m for the striker.
