Sunderland AFC latest: Amad Diallo explains rumours, Jobe and Jack Clarke wanted

Here is all the latest news surrounding Sunderland.

On the field, Sunderland has recently been through a terrible period.

Michael Beale was fired last month, and Mike Dodds took over as interim manager until the end of the

season.

They are currently on a six-game losing streak, though, having failed to gain a single point in his four

games in charge thus far.

With nine games remaining and 11 points down, the Black Cats appear to have abandoned all hope of

making the playoffs for the second straight season.

Here, we look at the most recent information about Sunderland, including players who are getting close

to returning from injuries and rumors about incomings and outgoings.

Amad Diallo was the star for Sunderland last season, with the Manchester United loanee scoring 13 goals as they reached the play-offs.

Following his recovery from a preseason injury, he hardly played for United again. There were rumors

that he would return to the Stadium of Light, but that never happened.

Recently, Diallo removed all of his posts about Manchester United from social media, which fueled

speculation that he will leave Old Trafford once more.

But he then disclosed that this was because he was getting ready for Ramadan, the Muslim month of

fasting.

“I turned off all social media for a month in order to dedicate myself to Ramadan.” Amad said on social

media, “Stop the hate, there’s nothing wrong with what I did,” before the posts were taken down. For

me, this is holy month, and social media is a place where horrible things happen.
