Sunderland’s 2023-24 season is now over after Saturday’s 2-0 loss to Sheffield Wednesday at the Stadium of Light last weekend.
The defeat marked Sunderland’s 22nd in the Championship this campaign as the Black Cats finished a disappointing 16th in the league after last season’s top-six finish under former head coach Tony Mowbray.
Evans had made a successful return from a major ACL injury that kept him on the sidelines for well over a year in recent weeks, but is understood to have been informed that the club will not offer him a new deal this week. It’s also expected Dack will leave the club this summer, with Sunderland set to turn down the chance to trigger their one-year extension clause.
Sunderland were credited with an interest in Drammeh during the January transfer window and sent scouts to watch the attacker at the beginning of the year, seeing an initial bid rejected. The Barcelona-born player is out of contract this summer and has rejected offers to remain with Sevilla and is expected to leave the club on a free transfer when his deal expires this summer.
The Black Cats have also been linked with signing West Ham striker Divin Mubama this summer – with the teenager’s contract set to expire at the London Stadium. Sunderland are said to be “frontrunners”.
The 19-year-old was linked with multiple clubs during the January transfer window, when Sunderland, West Brom and Premier League club Everton were said to be monitoring his situation. Mubama has made just five league appearances this season and played 18 times for West Ham’s first team after coming through the club’s academy.
