Here, though, we take a look at the shock transfer dealings Sunderland conclude in January on Football Manager 2023 (for a little bit of fun!):
1. IN: Anthony Ralston
On our Football Manager simulation, Celtic's Anthony Ralston joins Sunderland in January on loan. The 28-year-old plays mostly as a right-back and is a Scotland international. Photo: Steve Welsh
2. IN: Sam Greenwood
An interesting arrival during our simulation was former Sunderland youth teamer, Sam Greenwood. In real life, the academy graduate left his boyhood club for Arsenal and then moved to Leeds United. In the game, the Black Cats are able to re-sign the 20-year-old forward on a loan deal until the end of the season in January. Photo: George Wood
