So, what messages have Dennis Cirkin and Jack Clarke sent to Alex Pritchard since his move from Sunderland to Birmingham City? Let’s have a look.
Alex Pritchard leaves Sunderland
Well, Alex Pritchard has left Sunderland permanently. The former Tottenham Hotspur offensive midfielder has joined Birmingham City, their Championship rivals. The Black Cats received less than £500,000 in transfer fees, as reported by HITC.
Pritchard, who went through the Tottenham development system and played for the first team before going to Norwich City in 2016, will join Sunderland in the summer of 2021.
The offensive midfielder enjoyed great success at the Stadium of Light. He scored nine goals in 115 games for the Black Cats, helping them gain promotion from League One in 2022.
Pritchard helped Sunderland reach the Championship playoffs last season. In 30 Championship starts, the 30-year-old recorded four goals and seven assists.
Pritchard’s contract with Sunderland was slated to expire at the end of the season. He has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract and will reconnect with his former Black Cats manager, Tony Mowbray.
