A report suggests that Sunderland are interested in Swansea City manager Garry Monk, after West Ham United were linked with the 36-year-old this week.

Sunderland are interested in securing the services of Swansea City manager Garry Monk, according to reports.

The 36-year-old has enjoyed a successful campaign with the Welsh club, who are currently eighth with six games left.

West Ham United were rumoured to be keen on replacing Sam Allardyce with Monk, and now the Black Cats have joined the race, according to Wales Online.

Monk called the link with the Hammers a '="compliment" on Thursday, but played down the rumours linking him with a move away from Swansea.

"West Ham have a fantastic manager in place," Monk told reporters. "For them to be looking elsewhere, if they are, I think they've already got the manager there who's had a fantastic season.

The former Swansea player has two years left on his contract at the Liberty Stadium.
