Fletcher: Set for talks with Sunderland

The Black Cats have seen three bids turned down for the Scottish striker, and that prompted him to hand a transfer request at Molineux.

Fletcher's stance has seen him not involved under new boss Stale Solbakken - who has been keen for the saga to come to an end.

Wolves have always insisted that they would not let Fletcher, or any player, leave until their valuation was met.

But the two clubs are understood to have finally agreed a fee, allowing Fletcher to discuss personal terms with Martin O'Neill's outfit.
