Sunderland sold the Academy of Light product last week.
Some Sunderland fans fear their side will regret selling Andrew Nelson to Dundee FC.
Nelson scored one goal and set up another in the Dark Blues’ 2-1 win at Hearts on Wednesday – his full debut for the club.
Meanwhile, Sunderland look set to lose the club’s top goalscorer, Josh Maja, to Girondins de Bordeaux – having already seen Jerome Sinclair return to Watford following a loan spell.
The Mackems now have a week to find a replacement, or risk going the rest of the campaign with Charlie Wyke as their only recognised centre forward.
And Nelson’s bright start north of the border has only increased frustration among the Sunderland fanbase.
This is what’s being said on Twitter…
Sunderland are expected to receive around £3.5 million for Maja, who could have left for next to nothing at the end of his contract this summer.
And that should at least soften the blow, leaving the Mackems boss, Jack Ross, with plenty of funding with which to secure a replacement.
