Burnley agree transfer deal amid Jack Clarke interest as ex-Sunderland and Leeds target confirms exit

The latest Sunderland-related and Championship transfer news from around the web.

Premier League side Burnley have completed the signing of young winger Luca Koleosho – following multiple bids for

Sunderland’s Jack Clarke.

The Clarets have been looking to strengthen their wide options this summer and also signed former Southampton winger

Nathan Redmond on a free transfer last week.

Burnley have explored the option of re-signing Nathan Tella from Southampton on a permanent deal, after the 24-year-old

scored 17 Championship goals during a loan spell at Turf Moor during their 2022/23 promotion-winning campaign.

Tella has two years left on his contract at Southampton, who are said to value the winger at £15million.

Clarke is another player on Burnley’s radar and The Clarets are understood to have made a fourth bid in excess of £10

million for the 22-year-old.

Nottingham Forest striker bids farewell

The 24-year-old, who has a year left on his contract at the City Ground, is expected to join MLS side Nashville SC for a fee of

around £5million.

Surridge came close to signing for Sunderland on loan in 2019, while the Black Cats were credited with interest again in

January.

The striker was also said to be a potential transfer target for Championship clubs Leeds and Ipswich this summer.

In a farewell message to Forest fans on social media, Surridge wrote: “I’d like to give a special mention to the supporters for

showing me nothing but love throughout my time.

“Now it’s time to move on and write a new chapter for myself. I want nothing but success for this team and supporters in the

future.”
