Sunderland are still locked in a battle for a play-off spot as we head into the final games of the season.
The Black Cats are outsiders at this point, but Tony Mowbray’s men will be hoping to take the fight to the very end. Whether they sneak in or not, it has been an impressive season for the club, and Mowbray has already spoken about an exciting summer of recruitment that lies ahead as Sunderland look to kick on next term.
With that in mind, we have put together a possible starting XI for next season, including some of the possible signings.
