Published: October 23, 2015
Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce has started running the rule over free agent Chinedu Obasi, with a view to offering him a contract.
The Nigeria international has been searching for a new team after his contract was not renewed by Bundesliga side Schalke 04 at the end of the 2014 - 2015 season.
Sam Allardyce, who signed Austin Okocha from PSG back in 2002, has stated that there is a possibility that Obasi would be offered a contract if he proves his injury problems are behind him and show his qualities during the training matches.
The 29 - year - old began his career in Europe with Lyn Oslo alongside good pal John Obi Mikel before transferring to Hoffenheim in 2007.
In 18 international appearances for the Super Eagles, the River Lane Youth Club Enugu product has scored 4 goals.
