European clubs want Sunderland youngster after successful position change
European Clubs Eye Sunderland Youngster After Impressive Position Switch
Sunderland are expected to face a busy summer transfer window as interest grows in several of their key players. The club’s plans will depend partly on the outcome of the Championship play-offs, but preparations are underway for all possible scenarios. Strengthening the squad and managing outgoing transfers will be crucial in shaping their 2025/26 campaign.
Among the players out on loan, one standout performer has caught the eye of clubs beyond the UK. His successful switch in position this season has significantly raised his profile and market value, prompting growing interest.
Nectar Triantis, currently on loan at Hibernian, has thrived after moving from centre-back to a defensive midfield role. His performances in the Scottish Premiership have impressed both Hibs and several European sides, according to The Mirror. Hibernian are keen to make the move permanent, but they now face stiff competition from abroad.
Sunderland have yet to confirm their stance on Triantis, but with the player not currently in their first-team plans, a summer sale could be on the cards. The Black Cats may view rising interest as a good opportunity to cash in, especially as other players like Jobe Bellingham and Chris Rigg are also attracting attention.
Triantis has spoken positively about his time in Scotland, having spent 18 months on loan with Hibs. However, he remains focused on long-term goals, saying, “That’s another goal of mine – to be in the Premier League, the best league in the world. I think that’s where all players aspire to be.”
As interest builds and bids emerge, Sunderland face key decisions on whether to retain Triantis or allow him to move on for the next step in his career.
