Anyone have any idea on his position with Sunderland, assume he would be fit for the start of the season.

He’s been offered a new contract but has yet to agree to sign it. There was a piece in their local paper last week about him.

I work with a Sunderland fan and he was telling me today that they are worried that he hasn't signed yet. He also said that there is talk of there being some kind of relationship with Town going forward and mentioned we might be taking another couple of their youngsters - he did say the names but I can't remember - one was quite exotic.

I'd be happy with that because they also have a great academy

Also work with a Sunderland fan who tipped me off about Embleton a couple of days before we originally signed him. Reckons they’re sending a young midfielder, Bali Mumba, our way if that rings any bells.

Only young and a bit of a wee man by all accounts, but apparently very talented. Technically their youngest ever captain as well apparently.

Yes, that is definitely the name my mate said. He also said about one being 17 years old but not sure which one.

Mumba is 17 I believe, but has already been on the fringes of the Sunderland first team. Mate spoke well of him.

Mumba sounds positively Gilbertesque at 5' 4". Obviously a talented lad as he's played for England at various youth levels.

Bali Mumba also scans to La Bamba ala the Harry Maguire song sung this week in Portugal. I’d sign him for that reason alone.

You'd think the compensation would price us out of that.

I might be completely wrong. But isn’t the compensation only valid if he moves to the same or a higher level?

I'd love this to happen but just can't see it.  I mean you do  see good players leave their home club but not to join a smaller club in a smaller division.   Besides he'll be on a decent wedge.

For sure going out on loan:-

https://www.chroniclelive.co.u.....-mumba-loan-16406517


Would make sense for it to be us as well.

1. He is not going to be loaned out to a L1 rival for them.

2. We treated Elliot superbly last season and he made real progress as a player.

3. Jolley will give younger players a good chance and with his youth coaching I think Jack Ross will see the benefits.

Apparently he isn't keen on signing it. Have seen a few articles suggesting that and there's an 8 page thread on their forum that hints at that a few times too (in among the chat about whether he's good enough for them or not - which is the bulk of it).

Ok we have a 17 year old on loan but what about our young players? Does this push them further down the pecking order?

One of the country's  best in that age group, I would  imagine  our first year pro's  are likely to get loaned to non league teams  to get first team action regardless of who signs.. If you're  referring  to the likes of Clifton then I would say he seems a permanent  fixture in the squad now so in that case I'd  say no.
