Enzo Le Fée pictured en route to ‘complete’ Sunderland medical as Tottenham plot Cats transfer raid
The January transfer window has begun, and Sunderland is already finding it to be a busy one. It would be very acceptable if a tale or two occasionally slipped through the net, given the abundance of rumours and conjecture and the growing likelihood of a first incoming signing.
In light of this, here is a compilation of the transfer-related Southampton tidbits that you might have overlooked today.
Le Fée pictured on flight to England
And it would appear that the agreement is on the cusp of finalisation, with reporter Santi Aouna sharing an exclusive photograph of Le Fée “on a private flight with his family” and on his way to Wearside. Upon landing, Aouna suggests that the player will “complete medical tests and sign”.
Amad set to pen new Man United deal
Former Sunderland loanee Amad Diallo is likely to put pen to paper on a new contract with Manchester United today, according to reports. The Ivorian, who helped the Black Cats get to a Championship play-off semi-final under Tony Mowbray, had a tremendously successful temporary time at the Stadium of Light in 2022–2023 and is still a favourite among Wearside fans.
He has subsequently made a name for himself as a key player of United’s Premier League first team, and this season has been a particularly strong one for the Red Devils. Italian transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has suggested that Thursday is the attacker’s “new deal day,” indicating that his efforts will be rewarded as well.
In a post to his personal X account, the reporter stated that Amad is expected to sign his contract today, with the agreement set to run until June 2030. Earlier in the week, a report from United In Focus claimed that Diallo will be set to earn around £120,000-a-week under the terms of his extension.
Spurs eye Jobe
In other news, Sunderland midfielder Jobe Bellingham has been linked to Tottenham, the newest team to express interest in him. In recent weeks, the adolescent has already been mentioned as a target by teams like Crystal Palace, Manchester United, and Arsenal, as well as continental powerhouses Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, who are Jude’s current and former teams, respectively.
However, online publication TEAMtalk claims that Spurs are now open to joining the multitude of teams vying for Bellingham, albeit they might be ready to wait before formally pursuing him. Since Ange Postecoglou is known to have other transfer priorities this January besides the centre of midfield, it is more possible that they would wait until the summer to make a firm commitment.
