Sunderland’s Transfer Tsunami: Black Cats Set Sights on Leeds Star target Sam Greenwood
Sunderland has emerged as a formidable force in the transfer market, consistently outmaneuvering Leeds United in their pursuit of top talent. After snatching Habib Diarra and Noah Sadiki from under Leeds’ nose, the Black Cats are now targeting a high-profile transfer involving the Whites’ own star, Sam Greenwood.
Greenwood’s future at Leeds has been uncertain following successive loan spells, and with the 23-year-old on the transfer list, Sunderland has jumped into the fray. Alongside Leicester City, the Black Cats are reportedly willing to pay Leeds’ asking price of £4m for the talented forward.

This development comes as no surprise, given Sunderland’s track record of poaching Leeds’ targets. Under Regis Le Bris, the club has demonstrated a ruthless determination to strengthen their squad, and targeting a Leeds player is a bold move that could pay dividends.
Greenwood’s Uncertain Future
Greenwood’s time at Leeds has been marked by flashes of promise, but ultimately, he’s failed to cement a regular spot in the team. Despite showing glimpses of his potential during his loan spell at Preston, Daniel Farke has deemed him not Premier League-ready.
The forward’s history with Sunderland, having begun his career at the club, could make a return an attractive prospect. If Le Bris can persuade Greenwood to join the Black Cats, it could be a shrewd move for both parties.
Sunderland’s Grand Plan
Sunderland’s pursuit of Greenwood is the latest example of their ambitious transfer strategy. With a clear plan in place to strengthen their squad and push for Premier League success, the Black Cats are willing to take bold steps to achieve their goals.
As the transfer window heats up, one thing is certain – Sunderland will stop at nothing to secure the talent they need to succeed. Will they succeed in their pursuit of Greenwood, or will Leeds find a way to retain their former star? The battle for Greenwood’s signature is set to intensify.
