Bruce has been credited with an interest in Germany international striker Kevin Kuranyi, who is out of contract at Schalke 04 at the end of the season. Press Association Sport understands that the Black Cats are among a series of clubs monitoring the player's situation - although the Brazil-born 27-year-old could yet opt to wait until the summer before assessing his options.
