Sunderland have not yet made contact for former USA coach Bob Bradley.
There were reports late on Tuesday night suggesting 57-year-old, who is currently in Norway with Stabaek, is a shock contender for the top job at Sunderland that was vacated by Dick Advocaat last weekend.
However, well-connected Amnerican journalist Joe Prince-Wright, who is a leading writer for NBC Sports, reports that there has not been an approach as yet.
RE Bob Bradley to Sunderland, have been told no contact between #SAFC & #Stabaek yet. Norwegians wouldn't stand in former #USMNT coach's way

Have no doubt in my mind Bradley would do fantastic job at Sunderland. Saw first-hand his miracles at Stabaek. Also performed them in Egypt.

Whether or not an approach will be made at some point isn't really known, but I understand there is no shortage of interested parties in the job, regardless of what some newspapers would have you believe.
