NEW: Langstaff links with Sunderland

Journalist Darren Witcoop says that Notts County striker Macaulay Langstaff, who scored 29 goals in all competitions for Notts County last season, has ‘admirers’ in the Championship.

Witcoop links Sunderland in the post, naming Swansea City as one of the teams ‘watching developments’ this summer.

Langstaff, 27, has been linked with Sunderland in the past. He was heavily linked with a move away from Notts County in January but Witcoop said that Championship clubs were unsure if he could make the step up from League Two.

Notts County finished in 14th place of the League Two table last season, but Langstaff claimed the Golden Boot award with 28 league goals and five assists.

NEW: Neil turns down Sunderland offer.

According to Sky Sports journalist Keith Downie, Dan Neil has now rejected Sunderland’s first contract offer. He wrote on X: “Dan Neil has rejected Sunderland’s first new contract offer, but understand talks between club & player are ongoing. #SAFC relaxed about the situation as the midfielder still has two years left on his current deal. But without doubt, one of the club’s prize assets.” Dan Neil not signing a new contract isn’t the end of the world, as he still has two years remaining on his contract.

However, that isn’t really the point. Neil will likely look to wait to see who the Black Cats appoint too, while his future could well be decided by next summer depending on how next season goes. But Sunderland could also be in big trouble if a Premier League club catch wind of his situation and choose to launch a bid for him in the coming months, at which point they may struggle to keep hold of him.

Bad news, Black Cats.
