Joleon Lescott training with Sunderland in bid to secure short-term deal Last Updated: 20/01/17 2:26pm
Joleon Lescott is training with Sunderland in a bid to earn a short-term deal with the Premier League strugglers. The 34-year-old centre-back, who has been capped 26 times by England, is a free agent after his contract with AEK Athens was terminated by mutual consent last year. Lescott spent last season at Aston Villa and previously had spells with Wolves, Everton, Manchester City and West Brom. A short-term deal for the defender may appeal to Moyes, who said on Friday morning that funds for new signings are fairly limited.
"I'd be kidding you on if I said the players we are going to bring in in January are going to massively make a big difference," said Moyes.
"First of all, we probably couldn't get that level of player and, secondly, we probably wouldn't have the finances to do that.
"To suggest that the player we bring in would be making a big difference, I think, wouldn't be correct."
