Everton and Sunderland are set to battle it out for the signature of Reading star Stephen Hunt in the January transfer window according to reports in The Guardian and the Daily Mirror this week.Hunt has done well for Reading in recent weeks, netting two pens in successive games, and has always proved to be an upbeat, fiery player. The 26 year old has made 101 appearances for The Royals since joining from Brentford in 2005.
I'm sure Steve Coppell will do his utmost to cling onto what I think is a great talent but Hunt may be attracted by the move with the presence of several Irish players at The Stadium of Light.
It is thought that Sunderland will put in a bid of around £3/4 million for the Ireland international and even Everton fans have to admit that he would be a typical Roy Keane signing. However Moyes will try to pry Hunt away from Roy Keane's lure and bring him to Goodison Park.
