Sunderland offer three players new contracts as they confirm their retained list

Sunderland have offered three of their eight out-of-contract players new deals to remain on Wearside in the Championship next season. The Black Cats were afforded extra time to finalise their retained list due to their involvement in the League One play-offs, but they have now published the list and confirmed that academy product Lynden Gooch, ex-Manchester City winger Patrick Roberts, and Australia international centre-back Bailey Wright have been offered new terms.

Sunderland to clinch first summer signing as Leon Dajaku's move is made permanent

Leon Dajaku will seal a permanent move to Sunderland in the wake of the club's promotion to the Championship. Dajaku spent the season on loan with the Wearsiders from German side Union Berlin, and a clause in the deal meant that his switch would become permanent in the event of promotion - and that clause was triggered following Sunderland's play-off final win at Wembley on Saturday.
