I really hope you are wrong mate. I dont see any sensible reason for him to leave and it seems to me he is very sensible.
A mate of mine (scout at city), told me hes signing a pro deal with us - sounds like they were told that by Rigg's camp so hope its true The lad could be very special
We've all heard that Rigg is happy here, I think, and I believe that he'll sign the contract that he's reportedly been offered, and he'll make one of the midfield positions his own and thrive 'under new management' from a very good coach next season

It is noted that there was no contact between the player and the Lviv club. Sunderland, in turn, is not ready to loan Rusin out and is counting on him next season. Rusin himself also wants to stay in England. The forward has already gone through the adaptation process and intends to fight for a place in the first team in the next campaign. Let us remember that in August last year, Sunderland paid Zarya 2.5 million euros for Rusin. Details of the transfer history are here. This season, the 25-year-old Ukrainian has scored 2 goals and provided 1 assist in 22 matches.

Good. Think he could thrive in a high pressing system (Svensson). If Svensson keeps a similar system I could see Rusyn playing on the left of a front 3. Been looking at other transfers from the Ukrainian League to England in the last few years and both Zabarnyi at Bournemouth and Yarmolyuk at Brentford barely played the first season they were at the club but this season have featured a lot more, Zabarnyi especially.
Most players from abroad need to be giving time to get used to the game over here. Always remember Bergkamp struggling initially at Arsenal
Two weeks ago that was definitely the case. All agreed verbally. Unless someone manages to turn his head from then until the end of June, he’s staying.
I’m hoping KLD turns up the day before and sleeps over to make sure nobody gets there before him in the morning
I'd imagine the contract is already sorted and signed. It won't come into play until 17th June, but terms all agreed etc
