10 Players Dick Advocaat Could Bring With Him To Sunderland

6. Jordy Clasie

Jordy Clasie hasn't strictly played under Advocaat, though the case for him being included on this list is that Sunderland would probably not be linked with the creative midfielder without the Dutch influence of Advocaat. The Sunderland boss has managed his homeland's international team on three separate occasions, two spells as caretaker, and thanks to his links with the Eredivisie, he's probably in a better position than most to persuade a genuinely talented player such as Clasie to sign. Sunderland have actually been credited with genuine interest in the Feyenoord midfielder along with Southampton, and would be a big coup for the club if he were to step up to the Premier League.
