Sunderland fans are all saying the same thing after Jack Diamond's three-year contract announcement

Jack Diamond has signed a new three-year contract at the Stadium of Light in a move that has pleased supporters.

The 21-year-old, who made his senior debut for the club in 2018, has committed his future to the club until June 2024.

The youngster has broken into Sunderland’s first team this season and has made 27 appearances and helped the Black Cats win the Papa John’s Trophy-winning campaign.

Sunderland supporters were quick to react to the announcement on social media – here’s what you said on Twitter:
