Former Sunderland majority owner Stewart Donald has opened up on his desire to return to National League side Eastleigh after selling more of his shares in the Black Cats. It comes after Kyril Louis-Dreyfus and Juan Sartori both increased their stakes in the club to 58 percent and 33 per cent respectively.
Donald - who has reduced his shares in the club from 19 percent to nine percent - claims he has no further intention to sell more of his stake in the club in the short to medium term. The former Black Cats owner says he still loves the club and admits he got it wrong in the eyes of supporters.
With Donald now owning less that a ten per cent stake - it allows him to take up a more hands on role elsewhere, with the co-owner addressing a possible return to former club Eastleigh. Donald has insisted he has no saying in the day to day running of the Wearsiders having taken a step back after selling the club.
