Regis Le Bris explains why he hopes Sunderland ‘receive offers’ for players including Jobe Bellingham and more

Several Sunderland players have the potential to sign a contract with the Premier League or another top flight in Europe right now, which would probably bring in a nice £20 million transfer fee for the team. However, certain players are clearly more inclined to do so than others.At the moment, Jobe Bellingham is a man in demand.Bellingham is wanted by both Crystal Palace and Arsenal, and this season, Real Madrid and Chris Rigg, his midfield partner, have also been mentioned. However, Enzo Le Fee’s loan move to Sunderland is now the biggest news coming out of the Stadium of Light. In a move that has the entire Championship talking, the French midfielder is on Wearside to complete his loan from Roma.

Regis Le Bris was questioned about possible departures from Sunderland.

Le Fee’s move to midfield has unavoidably raised questions over whether Bellingham could be transferred during the January transfer window. However, Regis Le Bris emphasized that wasn’t the case in a press conference on Thursday afternoon.

“It’s obvious that we want to keep our players, 100%,” he told the Southern Echo. There is no question about that. However, Le Bris went on to say that he thinks his team would have offers for players like Bellingham, who the Sunderland owners reportedly value at £20 million. “I hope we receive offers, as it indicates that we have good players,” Le Bris continued. Bellingham and Sunderland reportedly have a gentleman’s agreement that allows the 19-year-old midfield player to depart during the January transfer window if a Premier League team makes a good bid.

Michael Graham offers his thoughts on Jobe Bellingham’s future at Sunderland.

Journalist Michael Graham also shared his opinions about Bellingham’s future at Sunderland and how Le Fee’s arrival would affect it. Recently, Graham said on X: “Regis Le Bris stated that #SAFC felt they were short on central midfielders at the beginning of January, but it’s worth noting that you can never predict anything with Sunderland, as apparently signing Enzo Le Fee proves.” Le Fee’s arrival does not imply that someone is departing, as Le Bris’ remarks indicate. Sunderland will undoubtedly want to retain players like Bellingham because Le Fee’s arrival showed how serious they are about getting promoted this season. Nevertheless, if a substantial offer is made, it might be too good to pass up.
