If he doesn’t want to sign, then get rid. Club is bigger than one player.

Think I saw something last week that Bournemouth were considering loaning him out. They are after Daka from Leicester.
Yeah to most it’s high risk, to someone like Southampton with the parachute payments not so much.
Just hope we get a decent fee but I doubt it.
Surely though we stick for a high fee or they don’t want him
He's 27 had a couple of injuries. maybe he looks on this as his only chance to get a lucrative move.
Loyalty is one thing but in the end he has to look after himself financially.
If someone like Southampton comes in for him then they can offer way more than what we can.
We should expect a big fee but we couldn't compete with what they could offer him.
They have just came down from the Prem. We have just came up from League one.
Earned over £100m last season raked in £150m in transfers so far and have £45m in parachute payments on the way.
Unfortunately financially we are miles apart.
Because we won't be held to ransom ...... we cannot compete with parachute payments
That’s true. Another reason why I don’t expect us to be anywhere near promotion this season. We are miles away. It’s just the way it is.
Agree. This forum is the best place for Sunderland coverage.
Luton were miles away last season ...
... team spirit and determination put them higher than clubs that had spent more.
Norwich and Watford had the parachute payments and failed.
Southampton could be buying a player they can't do a medical on ...
... they look like a badly run club tbh.
We reached the play offs without Ballard, Stewart, Batth, Cirkin and Alese meaning we lost all of our height against a team that plays football at altitude. Those players may now all be available which is half a team ...
... I'd say it's quite difficult to say where we'll finish until we know what team we'll have and who we sign, Amad might even return.

If other players weren’t signing new deals I’d be concerned but they are so i’m not sure its the clubs fault
In an ideal world, at the end of each transfer window the squad should be stronger than it was at the beginning. I guess by Friday we will find out. I live in hopes.
Yeah think he’s already discovering English football is different to what he’s used to, but I’ve seen a few minutes in various games that says he looks a competent enough player. Let’s hope I’m right and we’ll see that in years to come.
If Stewart leaves that’s unlikely at this point, if he stays it’s possible
I think it’s unrealistic to think our squad will ever be able to make step changes in improvement without sales.
It’s why timing of injury to Stewart ****ed us. Should have been getting £15-20m for him at the start of the window. Not £3-5m at the end of it. (Made figures up)
