The French head coach, who joined from FC Lorient ahead of last season, has committed to a new long-term contract with the club.

Le Bris (pictured) guided Sunderland to a fourth-place finish in the Championship and helped the club end their eight-year absence from the topflight, defeating Sheffield United in the playoff final.

Now after a busy couple of months in preparing his squad for the upcoming campaign, Le Bris has also committed to the club.
