Sunderland midfielder Kieran Richardson could leave the club in the summer, according to reports.
Richardson, who has flourished under new boss Martin O'Neill, will enter the final year of his contract this summer and the Daily Mail suggests that the club could cash in on him.
O'Neill is believed to prefer that Sunderland receive a fair price for Richardson rather than lose him for a lower price or even for free in the future.
Players such as Titus Bramble, Craig Gordon, Michael Turner and Matthew Kilgallon could all exit the Stadium of Light in a possible summer clear-out.
The 27-year-old has previously been linked with a move to Arsenal.
