Sunderland have the option to sign Barnsley’s Callum Styles permanently this summer, following his loan spell during the 2023/24 season where he made 12 Championship appearances. Despite being an unused substitute in Hungary’s 3-1 Euro 2024 loss to Switzerland, Styles remains a key player, having earned 22 caps for his national team. He reassured fans about a recent injury, confirming on Instagram that it was not serious.

Styles, who has played as both a central midfielder and left-back, expressed his enjoyment at Sunderland despite a turbulent season with managerial changes. In an interview with FourFourTwo, he acknowledged the club’s passionate supporters and their Premier League ambitions, indicating his desire to stay longer but noting various factors could influence his future. His current focus is on contributing to Hungary’s Euro 2024 campaign, aiming to progress beyond the group stage.
