When every Sunderland player's contract will expire after update and new Dan Neil deal: Photo gallery
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.
Midfielders Dan Neil and Corry Evans have recently signed new deals, while Sporting Director Kristjaan Speakman recently provided an update to the Echo concerning Danny Batth, Alex Pritchard and Ross Stewart.
Here is when every Sunderland player’s contract is set to expire:

3. Ellis Taylor - Summer of 2024
Following a frustrating loan spell at Hartlepool in the first half of the 2022/23 season, the winger returned to Wearside this year. Taylor, 20, has a year left on his contract after signing a three-year deal at the Stadium of Light in 2021. Photo: Frank Reid
