Alfie Harrison, an 18-year-old midfielder, emerged as Newcastle United’s sole signing during the January 2024 transfer window. With the specific transfer fee undisclosed, Harrison’s decision to join St James’ Park was influenced by the perceived swifter pathway to first-team opportunities compared to his previous club, Manchester City. Despite his youth, Harrison’s impressive performances for the Newcastle United under 21s have garnered attention, leading to his nomination for the Premier League 2 Player of the Month award for April 2024. As the summer approaches, speculation surrounds Harrison’s next career move, with possibilities ranging from a loan spell for regular playing time to a potential inclusion in the Newcastle United first-team squad.

Triantis’s transition to a midfielder role at Easter Road could potentially enhance his prospects of securing a spot in Sunderland’s team in the future. With Dan Ballard and Luke O’Nien’s performances solidifying their positions, Triantis’s struggles in defense suggest the need for reinforcement before he earns regular first-team football. However, excelling in midfield could provide Sunderland with an additional option, particularly given Corry Evans’s uncertain contract situation and the effectiveness of other midfielders. Despite hopes for a breakthrough, doubts persist about Triantis’s potential, leaving skepticism about whether he’s truly a hidden gem unearthed by Kristjaan Speakman.

Liverpool is reportedly eyeing Sunderland’s rising talent, Chris Rigg, with several top European clubs closely monitoring the midfielder’s progress.

Notably, Rigg etched his name in Sunderland’s history by becoming the youngest-ever goalscorer for the club at just 16 years and 51 days, finding the net in an EFL Cup clash against Crewe Alexandra in August.
