Tony Mowbray predicts 'exciting times ahead' as Sunderland's young players blossom. The Black Cats' starting XI includes young talents such as Jack Clarke, Dennis Cirkin, and Ellis Simms, along with homegrown players such as Anthony Patterson, Elliot Embleton, and Dan Neil.
The club has also brought in another crop of youngsters in recent weeks, with Abdoullah Ba arriving from Le Havre, Jewison Bennette from Costa Rica, Edouard Michut on loan from Paris St Germain, and Amad Diallo on loan from Manchester United. Diallo made his debut as a substitute in Sunderland's defeat at Middlesbrough last night, while the other new arrivals are still working their way towards full match fitness.
"We made some changes and young Diallo came on and Embleton and they have shown me in training that they are good players," said Mowbray. "I think, watching the group in training, we've got some exciting times ahead.
