Sunderland’s summer spree of signings may not be over just yet, as the Black Cats are eyeing a move for a Premier League player to further strengthen their squad.
After an eventful transfer window that saw numerous new faces arrive at the Stadium of Light, ensuring continuity was key. This led to Sunderland securing promising youngster Chris Rigg on a new long-term deal, much to his delight.
Rigg expressed his enthusiasm upon signing the contract, emphasizing his attachment to the club since making his debut at just 15. He reflected on his rapid rise from the Championship to the Premier League, expressing gratitude to those who supported him along the way.
As the summer winds down, Sunderland looks to make a late splash in the transfer market. An intriguing update reveals that the club has made an offer for West Ham defender Nayef Aguerd, a move that could bolster their defensive ranks.
Aguerd, a seasoned 29-year-old with international experience, could provide a solid presence at the back for Sunderland. Despite West Ham’s recent struggles, Aguerd’s quality has not gone unnoticed, attracting interest from Marseille as well.
Although not guaranteed a starting spot, Aguerd’s addition to the squad would offer depth and expertise to Sunderland’s defense. With the potential to make a significant impact, he could prove to be a valuable asset in the Black Cats’ bid to secure their Premier League status.
