Defoe confident Sunderland will select right manager

Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe is confident they'll find the right manager.

Defoe believes there will be no shortage of managers who will be in the race to become the club's next No 1 this summer.

He told Sky Sports News: "The managers that are out of work now, obviously Sam Allardyce, Steve McClaren, whose someone that I've played under for England, is a good coach and I've always enjoyed training [with him].

"Harry Redknapp is out of work, I've played with Harry throughout my whole career.

"There's more people speaking about David Moyes coming back to the Premier League. I think the names that I've just said I'm sure they'll be in the race to get the job."
