Sensational’ Sunderland star linked with Premier League move gives decisive answer over future
One current Sunderland star has snapped back at current links to a Premier League move this January.
With the January transfer window now open, it is expected that Sunderland could see themselves fighting a battle to keep ahold of their key players, especially after several showed their worth in the decisive victory against Sheffield United.
The likes of Jobe Bellingham and Chris Rigg are without a doubt going to be drumming up interest after their performances so far in the 2024/25 Championship campaign, with Premier League and European sides already sounding out the pair.
Another man linked with from the Stadium of Light with a Premier League move is Black Cats shot-stopper Anthony Patterson, who was on call to save Sheffield United striker and former Sunderland transfer target Kieffer Moore’s penalty, a moment that was clearly pivotal in hindsight.
After his Premier League worthy performance against the Blades, he was asked about his future at the club, to which his response was very straightforward

Patterson put on a display on New Year’s Day that was deemed to be ‘sensational’ by Don Goodman, the type of performance that certainly will alert the top clubs in the country.
The Sunderland shot-stopper has previously been linked to moves to Man United and Tottenham Hotspur, which has led to Patterson being questioned about the rumours.
Per Sunderland Echo, Patterson said in response to if he was aware of any interest elsewhere in his services, he said: “No, like I always say, I’m a Sunderland player and I’m concentrating on this season and getting to Sunderland where they belong really.”
