There is now a chance that £10.5m player leaves Sunderland this summer with multiple teams…
New Sunderland head coach Regis Le Bris says it will be interesting to see how Adil Aouchiche’s game has evolved over the last year.
The 21-year-old playmaker made 14 senior appearances for French side Lorient under Le Bris during the 2022/23, before signing for Sunderland last summer.
Aouchiche featured 28 times in the Championship during his first season on Wearside, including 10 starts, after signing a deal until 2028 at the Stadium of Light.
