Sunderland’s rising star, Chris Rigg, recently opened up about his decision to extend his contract at the Stadium of Light, citing his trust in manager Regis Le Bris as a key factor. Despite interest from other teams, the talented 17-year-old believes in the club’s vision for his future.
Rigg’s impressive performances in the Championship have not gone unnoticed, with a couple of goals already under his belt this season. He has become a crucial part of the team under Le Bris, earning a regular spot in the starting lineup.
While rumors of interest from other clubs continue to swirl, including Birmingham City, Everton, and Manchester United, Rigg seems content to stay put for the time being. His new contract provides stability and allows him to focus on his game without the distraction of uncertain future prospects.
With Sunderland currently sitting at the top of the league, Rigg is relishing the opportunity to develop and grow as a player. His commitment to the club and manager shows his dedication to achieving success with the Black Cats, and Le Bris’ belief in him could lead to a long and successful career on Wearside.
