According to well-known transfer reporter Romano, Sassuolo winger Arman Laurient is about to join Sunderland for 20 million euros. The Premier League promoted team has already won 7 new players in this summer window.

140 million euros bought half of the team. The newly promoted team stirred up the summer window. After many years, Sunderland made a comprehensive renovation of the team during the Championship period, and strong aids joined the front, middle and back three lines. Sunderland's signings include experienced giants such as Renierdo (without visas) and Lefe (23 million), as well as powerful players from middle-class clubs such as Adingla (24 million), Habib Diyala (31 million euros), as well as elite players from minor league teams such as Taleby (20 million euros), Sadiki (17 million euros). The management has tried its best to meet the team building requirements of French coach Regis Lebris.

crushes La Liga and Serie A. Is 140 million enough?

Sunderland's investment now ranks 6th in the Premier League, surpassing all La Liga and Serie A teams (36 teams) except Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Naples, which shows its dominance. According to statistics from ESPN experts, Premier League promoted teams must invest more than 120 million euros to relegate. Sunderland has reached the standard. Their goal is to surpass the 160 million euros (2021 summer window) of the new team recruitment record set by Nottingham Forest back then.

Brentford and Wolves sent away the team's core one after another, and Sunderland saw hope of entering the middle of the Premier League.

For two consecutive seasons, the Premier League has seen the situation where the newly promoted teams collectively return home. These "lifts" are satisfied with the benefits brought by the parachute clause and have little strength in recruitment. Sunderland is obviously dissatisfied with the "one-year tour". Wolves, Brentford, Everton and other teams have successively sent away the team's core players, which gives them hope to enter the mid-level Premier League.
