Senegal ace could replace Bellingham
The Chronicle
|July 01, 2025
SENEGAL international Habib Diarra is the man Sunderland have put their faith in to replace Jobe Bellingham.
The Black Cats are said to be closing in on the RC Strasbourg midfielder in what will be a club-record £30million transfer, including add-ons.
The 21-year-old is set to become the most expensive player in Sunderland's history.
The Black Cats will pay £27m upfront plus £3m in add-ons for the Senegal midfielder.
The 21-year-old scored for Senegal against England in a friendly earlier this month.
Diarra's arrival sees him as a direct replacement for Bellingham, who joined Borussia Dortmund for an initial £27.8m fee, with all of that transfer fee committed to pay for the Senegal international.
Sunderland beat off plenty of competition for Diarra's signature, including from fellow newly-promoted Premier League side Leeds.
