Brentford's loan move for Sunderland striker Danny Graham has collapsed.

The Bees were poised to sign the former Swansea frontman to Griffin Park on a short-term deal until the new year.

However, the move has hit the skids and the 29-year-old looks set to remain on Wearside instead.

Graham has failed to find the net for the Black Cats since his £5million move to the Stadium of Light 18 months ago and has spent time on loan at Hull City and Middlesbrough.

He has featured just once for Sunderland this season, appearing as a late substitute in the Capital One Cup defeat to Stoke last month.
