Sunderland Step Up January Push for £30–40m Star as Confidence Grows
Sunderland AFC are reportedly growing increasingly confident of completing a major January transfer, with the Black Cats ready to strike a blockbuster deal for a highly rated 24-year-old star.

Sources close to the situation indicate that negotiations are progressing positively, with the player open to a move to Wearside and personal terms not expected to be an obstacle. The proposed deal is understood to be valued in the region of £30–40 million, underlining Sunderland’s serious intent as they look to accelerate their long-term project.

Club owner Kyril Louis-Dreyfus, alongside Sunderland’s sporting director, is said to be fully backing the move. The hierarchy are prepared to “strike harder” in the January transfer window, viewing this signing as a statement of ambition and a key step in strengthening the squad.

The 24-year-old, described by insiders as a “wonderful talent,” fits Sunderland’s recruitment profile—young, proven, and with significant upside. His arrival would not only boost quality on the pitch but also send a clear message to rivals about Sunderland’s determination to compete at a higher level.
With January fast approaching, momentum appears to be building behind the scenes. If negotiations continue on their current trajectory, Sunderland fans could soon be celebrating one of the club’s most eye-catching signings in recent years.
All eyes now turn to Wearside as the Black Cats look poised to turn confidence into a done deal. ‍⬛⚽
