The Black Cats made three new signings in January, including Pierre Ekwah, Joe Anderson and Isaac Lihadji, while forward Joe Gelhardt arrived on loan from Leeds.
Here is when every Sunderland player’s contract is set to expire following the January transfer window:

3. Ellis Taylor - Summer of 2024
Following a frustrating loan spell at Hartlepool in the first half of the 2022/23 season, the winger hasn't been able to break into Sunderland's first team. The 20-year-old has less than a year left on his contract after signing a three-year deal at the Stadium of Light in 2021. Photo: Frank Reid
4. Corry Evans - Summer of 2024
Sunderland’s captain hasn't played a first-team match for over a year after suffering an ACL injury. The 33-year-old signed a one-year contract extension in February last year, which will run until the summer of 2024. The deal includes a club option of a further year. Photo: Frank Reid
