Trai Hume's delight after signing contract extension at Sunderland tying him to the club until 2027

Trai Hume has spoken of his delight after signing a contract extension at Sunderland keeping him on Wearside until at least 2027. The Northern Ireland international defender joined the Black Cats in January 2022 from Linfield on a deal which ran until 2026 with an option of a further year.

But the club has today announced that the 21-year-old has signed an extension which runs until 2027, with the option of a further 12 months. "I am over the moon to sign a new deal," said Hume.
