When Sunderland can make new signings plus important transfer rules after Premier League discussions
As the summer transfer window approaches, Sunderland and their Championship competitors are gearing up for a crucial period of squad development. Following a lackluster conclusion to the 2023/24 season, Sunderland is keen to bolster their lineup when the window reopens next month. Historically, the Black Cats have focused on acquiring younger talent, but this strategy might need adjustment to incorporate more seasoned players. With the confirmed departures of Corry Evans and Bradley Dack at the end of their contracts, Sunderland faces a pivotal summer.
The transfer window for Premier League and EFL clubs will officially open on Friday, June 14, coinciding with the start of the European Championships. This summer’s transfer window will close on Friday, August 30 at 11pm for English clubs, three weeks after the Championship season begins. Sunderland will be evaluating players across all positions, with recruitment dependent on potential departures. The club is expected to target at least one new striker and address a shortage of options in central midfield, while also preparing for possible loan moves for younger players to gain first-team experience.
