On Sunday afternoon, Sunderland’s under-21 team will face Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League 2 play-off final in London, amidst ongoing transfer speculation involving some of their promising talents. Graeme Murty’s squad had a commendable season, securing ten victories and finishing seventh in the league standings, progressing to the play-off final with impressive performances against West Ham and Reading.

Alan Nixon reported that Sunderland’s left-back Oliver Bainbridge is attracting interest from Bradford City, while Halifax is interested in midfielder Caden Kelly on loan for the summer. However, Halifax’s manager, Chris Millington, recently denied any interest in Kelly, emphasizing their focus on developing their own young players.

Sunderland’s recent retained list revealed that Kelly will remain at the Academy of Light next season after the club triggered an option in his contract. Kelly, a former Manchester City player, has been pivotal in Sunderland’s successful under-21 campaign, contributing significantly to their performance as they prepare for the crucial match against Tottenham Hotspur.

Stoke City is gearing up for the 2024/25 Championship season, determined to improve on their lackluster performance from the previous year. Finishing in 17th place and narrowly avoiding relegation by six points, the team faces significant pressure to climb the standings under the leadership of manager Steven Schumacher, who is entering his first full season at the helm.

With the summer transfer window open and the club’s retained list announced, Stoke is focusing on strengthening key areas of their squad to ensure a successful season ahead. However, the team’s plans might be disrupted as one of their standout players, Wouter Burger, has attracted interest from Premier League clubs. Tottenham Hotspur and Sheffield United are reportedly keen on signing Burger, who joined Stoke just last year on a four-year contract.

Burger’s arrival at Stoke’s bet365 Stadium was unexpected, given his links to higher-tier clubs. Nonetheless, his decision to join the Potters has proven wise. The 23-year-old played 39 Championship games, scoring three goals and providing four assists, becoming a crucial player for Schumacher. Despite his recent arrival, Burger’s leadership qualities shone through, as he captained the team in Josh Laurent’s absence on nine occasions.

Tottenham Hotspur is poised to regain two key players, Richarlison and Pedro Porro, who have recovered from recent injuries, just in time for their clash against Arsenal. As the Gunners prepare to visit the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, they do so with a largely fit squad, with only Jurrien Timber potentially unavailable due to injury, pending a late fitness assessment. Manager Ange Postecoglou shared positive updates regarding Richarlison and Pedro Porro, confirming their fitness for the upcoming match. “Yeah, Pedro and Richy trained well this week, and both [are] available,” Postecoglou announced via Spurs’ official social media channels. However, the news was not as favorable for Destiny Udogie, who remains sidelined after suffering an injury setback. Udogie revealed via Instagram that his season had been cut short due to an injury, subsequently undergoing surgery on his left quadriceps. With Udogie out, Ben Davies is expected to step in for the match against Arsenal. Additionally, Oliver Skipp will also miss out due to a knock, as confirmed by Postecoglou. While Spurs continue to contend with longer-term absences, including Fraser Forster, Ryan Sessegnon, and Manor Solomon, their overall squad strength appears relatively intact for the upcoming fixture. Despite the injury setbacks, Tottenham’s lineup is expected to be close to full strength, with only Udogie considered a regular starter from the list of absentees. Both Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are set to approach the match without significant excuses regarding player availability, indicating that both sides will be ready to compete at their best on the pitch this weekend.

Many fans lack confidence in Speakman’s ability to secure a suitable replacement for Clarke, yet Clarke’s significance to the team may pose a challenge regardless. While there may be several talented wingers available for around £20 million, finding one of Clarke’s caliber willing to join Sunderland appears highly improbable. Clarke’s transformation from his earlier days at Tottenham Hotspur to his current level of excellence underscores the difficulty in replicating his acquisition.
