Turkish side Eyupspor close to signing Sunderland striker Ahmed Abdullahi

Sunderland are looking to offload striker Ahmed Abdullahi after an injury-plagued two-year spell on Wearside. The 22-year-old, signed from Belgian side Gent in August 2024, has failed to make an impact due to injuries and is behind Brian Brobbey, Wilson Isidor, and youngster Trey Ogunsuyi in the pecking order. He has been playing for the under-21s in recent friendlies. Turkish side Eyupspor are leading the race to sign him, with talks described as 'ongoing.' It is unclear whether the move would be a loan or permanent transfer, or what the fee might be. A move for Abdullahi appears almost certain this summer as Sunderland continue to refresh their squad after establishing themselves in the Premier League.
