Tony Mowbray says he is in the dark as to why Birmingham City midfielder Jobe Bellingham was on Wearsideto watch Sunderland's play-off semi-final against Luton Town. The 17-year-old - younger brother of Dortmund and England midfielder Jude - was pictured arriving at the Stadium of Light ahead of the Black Cats' 2-1 win against the Hatters in the first leg of their tie.
Bellingham has been linked with a move to Sunderland, and the Black Cats have a strong Birmingham connection with sporting director Kristjaan Speakman, coach Mike Dodds, and head of coaching Stuart English having all previously worked at St Andrew's with both Jude and Jobe. Asked about Bellingham's presence and the transfer speculation, Mowbray said: "It's not part of my remit.
"I'm the head coach, so I don't get involved too much in who we might sign."
