Brown said,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAston Villa are looking to sign a new striker in the summer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve been frustrated with Watkins and the other options because they haven\u2019t had that regular goalscorer, so they\u2019re looking at a few options. Brian Brobbey is somebody they will have been looking at, because there\u2019s always interest in players, strikers particularly, who are making a bit of a name for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSunderland did a fantastic job with their recruitment in the summer, and it\u2019s been a really strong season for them, and Brobbey has been very impressive. He looks a handful to play against. He\u2019s strong, will back into defenders, battle them, fight them, run in behind, and he\u2019ll score goals as well. So for a side like Aston Villa, that sort of centre-forward is going to be somebody who takes their fancy and I\u2019m sure they\u2019ll be keeping a close eye on him.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Brobbey\u2019s Decent Record In The Premier League<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Brobbey is having an excellent campaign at the Wearside club as he has produced a series of impressive performances for them up top. The Dutch forward has scored seven goals and grabbed one assist in 26 matches for Sunderland this season across multiple competitions.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_347480\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-347480\"><img data-lazyloaded=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Sunderland\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-1024x693.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-150x101.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-1536x1039.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-2048x1385.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-621x420.jpg 621w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-1242x840.jpg 1242w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-600x406.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-696x471.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-1392x941.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-1068x722.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/west-ham-united-v-sunderland-premier-league-1920x1298.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-347480\">LONDON, ENGLAND \u2013 JANUARY 24: Brian Brobbey of Sunderland warms up prior to the Premier League match between West Ham United and Sunderland at London Stadium on January 24, 2026 in London, England.
