The 27-year-old moved to Wearside from the Latics in the summer of 2018 and went on to make 136 appearances.

He was captain when Lee Johnson’s side lifted the Papa John’s Trophy at Wembley in March but was released after the Black Cats failed to claim League One promotion at the third time of asking.

"The good times will come again and I’m already looking forward to hearing the famous Roker Roar next season.”
