Sunderland AFC also released an official statement, acknowledging Bellingham’s contributions and wishing him the best for the future. “Jobe has been a fantastic part of our squad, both as a player and as a person. While we’re sad to see him go, we respect his decision and hope he finds success wherever his career takes him next.”
Speculation is already swirling regarding Bellingham’s next destination. While no official confirmation has been provided, several Championship and Premier League clubs are reportedly monitoring the situation closely.
For Sunderland fans, Jobe’s departure marks the end of a promising chapter, but his impact on the club will not be forgotten. As the summer transfer window approaches, attention now turns to how the club will fill the void left by one of its brightest young stars.
