"BeFootball is generally considered unreliable for verified football news and transfer reporting. It operates primarily as a social media and rumor aggregation account, often posting sensationalized headlines or recycling rumors from other tabloids to drive engagement."
Personally I'd ignore it as a bullshit site.
I posted the link but all the action from the club seem to be in opposition of a sale.
Load of bollocks I'd say.
It wouldn't be unreasonable, or surprising if they were looking for another investor. But every sign says he is here for a while yet. A long while I'd guess.

Yep, going well. In his interview a while back Tom Burrell, acting CEO said it would be £200m+ . We might have improved that by finishing seventh. £3.8m per place . Depends on what they assumed.@CWeatherspoon_

Its mental to think a year ago some fans on here were saying its too soon to get promoted and we should spend another couple of years in the Championship 
It's one of the worst phrases going imo.Its mental to think a year ago some fans on here were saying its too soon to get promoted and we should spend another couple of years in the Championship
Football doesn't stand still, you need to take your opportunities when they present themselves and react accordingly.
So glad we done the business this/last season.
Even if we had have come straight back down with zero points we'd have still accumulated all that money and created a stronger squad to set us up for another promotion push the season after.
I literally couldnt understand peoples logic in saying it would be better spending a couple of seasons in the Championship? Blows my mind.
Exactly mate me neither, we had reached a point in the championship that some players had developed to s level if we didn't gain promotion we would have lost them & of course not signed ELF
Possible the same statement could be made about this season if we didn't qualify for europe, we may still lose a couple but stand a better chance of holding onto the majority

Burwell hinted at upping our profile in Africa the other week. Wouldn't be surprised if we were sponsored by MTN or Zoomlion next year
damn, tried to post a vid but sure someone will do it, 73 players then and now
They were just young lads who lived the dream, its videos like that that highlight the age of some of them
Legends to a man

VULCANO SPEAKS SAFC & CR7
Former Sunderland assistant Luciano Vulcano has praised his former club, where his January exit came as a surprise. The Italian has been out of work since leaving Sunderland, with Regis Le Bris saying it "wasn't the right fit" for the club at the time. However, Vulcano seems to have no ill feeling towards Sunderland and praised the Lads following Europa League qualification. He seems like a really interesting guy and it's a shame it didn't work out for Luciano here at Sunderland...
POSITIVE EXPERIENCE
"Last season at Sunderland, I was asked to bring my 'Italian' tactical approach to an already solid structure. The club has built a strong team: Xhaka is a champion and would be a starter anywhere in Italy, Alderete was close to joining Roma, and Brobbey was a target of ours at Milan. Qualifying for the Europa League is deserved, and the English experience will stay with me."
WHAT NEXT?
"I'm leaving all doors open: I'm looking at the project. I like aggressive, organised teams that develop their players. Today, a coach must achieve results, but also contribute to the club's growth. That's why I'm waiting for the right challenge: not just any bench, but a team with which to build something."
WORKING WITH RONALDO AT
"I witnessed his greatness. Everything about him strikes you, but if I have to choose, I'd say two things. The first is purely football-related: his timing, which is senseless . You see him stop for a second: he isolates himself, enters a bubble to sense where the ball might go. You think: 'But will he actually get there in time?'. Yes, he gets there and scores. The second, the man and the professional. On the plane I sat behind him, we talked often during the trip: if he feels protected, he's a very outgoing person. In training, I noticed that he kicked with his supporting foot much closer to the ball than usual: 'Cris, can you explain?' 'Of course, I do it to have more control over my hips: if I have to change the angle at the last minute, I can do it better'. Wow. Then he explained to me the evolution of his running. Today he has a somewhat robotic run, less natural, more like a sprinter than a footballer: 'I studied and it helped me maintain speed as the years went by'. Exceptional. He's the best because he's dug deeper than anyone else, he knows every detail of what he's doing."
As long as its not CompoIf they are targeting Mexico, I wonder if next seasons away kit is inspired by Jorge Campos
