Brighton & Hove Albion are understood to be lining up a loan move for Manchester City defender Wayne Bridge.
The 31-year-old joined Sunderland on loan for the final four months of last season after falling out of favour at the Etihad Stadium.
Seagulls boss Gus Poyet now hopes to bring the former England international to the Amex Stadium on a temporary deal, according to Sky Sports News.
Bridge moved to Manchester City from Chelsea in 2009 for around £10m.
