Sunderland have completed the signing of Birmingham midfielder Jobe Bellingham for an undisclosed fee on the same day his older brother Jude moved to Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund. Jobe Bellingham made 23 appearances in all competitions last season and will complete the transfer when he returns from England Under-18 duty.
Speaking about his move, Jobe Bellingham said: “I’m delighted to sign for Sunderland and I can’t wait to get started. The opportunity for young players to move here and progress is clear, so I believe this is the perfect club for me to continue my development.”
Tony Mowbray’s side finished sixth in the Championship last season before losing to Luton in the play-offs. The Black Cats have not disclosed the length of contract Bellingham will be signing.
