The latest Sunderland-related and Championship transfer news from around the web.
Premier League side Burnley have completed the signing of young winger Lusho ca Koleo- following multiple bids for Sunderland’s Jack Clarke.
The Clarets have been looking to strengthen their wide options this summer and also signed former Southampton winger Nathan Redmond on a free transfer last week.
Burnley have explored the option of re-signing Nathan Tella from Southampton on a permanent deal, after the 24-year-old scored 17 Championship goals during a loan spell at Turf Moor during their 2022/23 promotion-winning campaign.
Tella has two years left on his contract at Southampton, who are said to value the winger at £15million.
One player who is set to move this summer is striker Sam Surridge, who has confirmed he’ll be leaving Nottingham Forest.
The 24-year-old, who has a year left on his contract at the City Ground, is expected to join MLS side Nashville SC for a fee of around £5million.
Surridge came close to signing for Sunderland on loan in 2019, while the Black Cats were credited with interest again in January.
The striker was also said to be a potential transfer target for Championship clubs Leeds and Ipswich this summer
In a farewell message to Forest fans on social media, Surridge wrote: “I’d like to give a special mention to the supporters for showing me nothing but love throughout my time.
“Now it’s time to move on and write a new chapter for myself. I want nothing but success for this team and supporters in the future.”
Elsewhere in the Championship, QPR have completed the signing of left-back Morgan Fox on a free transfer.
The 29-year-old was released by Stoke at the end of last season and has been loosely linked with Sunderland in the past.
