Manchester United striker Frazier Campbell could be on his way to the Stadium of Light in a £6m deal.
Hull City have already had a bid accepted for the England Under-21 international, who was prominent in the Tigers` promotion campaign to the Premiership, scoring 15 goals and setting up the winner in the Playoff Final.
Reports in today`s Daily Mail suggest that Steve Bruce will match Hull`s offer. Bruce has a long-standing interest in Campbell, as he attempted to sign the striker on loan last season for Wigan before Campbell moved to Tottenham.
Campbell is set to make a decision over his future after the European Under-21 Championships conclude.

Definitely a better player than Chopra who you spent silly money on.
I agree – I think he’d be a great signing. He’s the type of player we need alongside Kenwyne.
As for Chopra, we did spend silly money on him but we are somehow getting £4.5m back for him – so we’ve only lost out on half a million.
