Decision time for Sandarland

“It is unbelievable what they have achieved,” said Henkeskef. “They adhered to philosophy: developing young talents, constructing them in a reasonable way, and success has achieved them. But now a great decision comes. Do they adhere to this plan, or are they spending great to try to stay in the Premier League?

“Teams like Leeds and Burnley were more prepared. On paper, Sunderland may not stand a great opportunity with their current team. But they now have this financial batch of promotion, which can put them in a strong position even if they returned down.

“Their summer will be very important. It seems that Bellingham, Tommy Watson is on their way out.

Weaver added: “Sunderland will still have great costs. They have certain money, but there are also rewards and additions that will owe other clubs to the players who have already signed.

“Enzo Le Dee will come permanently now, which is great. It was great. What is the step that was, from the RGIS Le Bris that you sent in January to ask how it was. After five months, he was in the Premier League.

“There is a lot for Sunderland to do. Maybe they were planning for that early, when they realized that they had a real shot in the upgrade. But the big question is whether they are continuing the same strategy. Will they continue to develop and sell, or will they change now? We will discover soon enough.

“We don’t know the fine details, but perhaps this step is always part of the plan when he joined Sunderland. He had two years, then he went.

“So I don’t think this is a surprise to the hierarchy Surdland hierarch. In fact, I think obtaining the club was a surprise for them as well.

“They will be against it in the Premier League. Does Bellingham want to be part of a struggling team? If this is what is running.

“Sunderland was clear about their strategy. Kyril Louis-Dreyfus said that when he arrived: brought the players to the youth, developing and selling them when the time and price are right.

“We saw Jack Clark at the beginning of the season when the price and timing were right. Part of that was because Tommy Watson was behind him. Then Brighton came with his offer.

“Can he return on loan to Sunderland next season? You never know. Luke Unan joked as he is looking to put a few treatments on him when they meet in the Premier League.”
