Nathan Bishop, a former goalkeeper for Manchester United, is rumored to be leaving Sunderland this summer.
The goalie, who played just one league game in his debut season on Wearside, was unable to displace first-choice Anthony Patterson after joining the Black Cats from the Red Devils last summer.
After spending the previous season on loan at AFC Wimbledon, Alex Bass of Portsmouth has since announced his move from Sunderland to Notts County. Bishop is now anticipated to follow Bass out the door. That’s what Alan Nixon says.
The Wearsiders also signed former Coventry City goalkeeper Simon Moore to compete with Patterson during the 2024-25 season, which will likely signal an end to Bishop’s career on Wearside. Nixon states that Sunderland’s second-choice stopper last season will be shipped out to make way for youngster Robert Cook.
Nixon adds that Sunderland are flying the Australian prospect to the North East for talks next month. The 17-year-old is rated as one of the best talents in the country and would be able to sign for the Black Cats as he carries a British passport.
