Sunderland move could be ideal for Geoffrey Kondogbia
He will be hoping to play more often, and Sunderland could provide him with that opportunity. The 33-year-old has the experience and the quality to help Sunderland, and he could prove to be a very useful option for them. The French outfit paid β¬8 million to sign the player in 2023, and he could be available for a knockdown price this summer.
Sunderland had an impressive season and will look to build on it. They will look to establish themselves as Premier League regulars, and they could use more quality and experience in the team. Even though Kondogbia would be a short-term acquisition, he could be a handy option for them.

It will be interesting to see if Sunderland follows up on their interest with an official proposal to get the deal done.
Convincing the midfielder to join the club will not be difficult. He will want to play more often next season, and the English club could provide him with the platform he needs.
