Sunderland latest<\/p>\n

talkSPORT reported yesterday that Borussia Dortmund are closing in on the capture of Jobe Bellingham from Sunderland.<\/p>\n

The deal is set to earn the Black Cats a club-record fee.<\/p>\n

They have accepted an offer of a \u20ac33million (\u00a327million) fixed fee, including \u20ac5million (\u00a34.2million) add-ons.<\/p>\n

The club also have a 15 per cent sell-on clause, should Jobe follow Jude’s pathway in the years to come.<\/p>\n

talkSPORT’s chief football correspondent, Alex Crook, has given an update on Sunderland’s situation this morning.<\/p>\n

He said: “I know a lot of Sunderland fans are really disappointed that he won’t be joining them on their Premier League adventure. <\/p>\n

“But it is a club record sale for the club. There are some add-ons included as well, so that fee could well rise.<\/p>\n

“The fear for Sunderland now is that we’ve seen how difficult it is for clubs coming up from the Championship to stay in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

“They’ve lost Bellingham, they’ve lost their Wembley playoff hero Tommy Watson because, of course, he’d already secured a move to Brighton. Dan Neil, the captain, is out of contract.<\/p>\n

“Normally, clubs coming up are thinking, how can we add to our squad? We need a bit of Premier League experience.<\/p>\n

“Jordan Henderson is a potential target, but to be losing players of that calibre, particularly when you look at how recently promoted teams have fared, I think it’s going to be a really tough season for Sunderland.”<\/p>\n
