Interest did arrive from several Premier League sides in January, including from Everton and Nottingham Forest, but those clubs were put off by Sunderland&#8217;s \u00a325m price-tag.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, despite his lack of playing time, Sunderland have attempted to negotiate a new deal with Isidor, only to have their efforts rebuffed by the Haiti international.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-container\">\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"\" align=\"\" summary=\"\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"2\" scope=\"col\">\n<p>Isidor 25\/26<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p>Minutes<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p>1,296<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p>Goals<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p>Assists<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p>0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>Whether those at the Stadium of Light stick by their asking price or allow their forward to leave at a cut-price this summer is now the big question. Even behind Brobbey in the pecking order, Isidor has shown his quality at times &#8211; scoring five league goals in his first season in the top flight.<\/p>\n<p>Given that there&#8217;s also interest in Brobbey, Sunderland would be playing a risky game by sanctioning the sale of their backup striker this summer.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sunderland-must-replace-pound-25m-isidor\">\n                        <strong>Sunderland must replace \u00a325m Isidor<\/strong><br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>It shows how successful Sunderland&#8217;s recruitment has been that they&#8217;ve got Brobbey and Isidor in their ranks. But the latter&#8217;s unhappiness is set to provide some trouble in paradise this summer &#8211; trouble that the Black Cats must solve before the new campaign gets underway.<\/p>\n<p>A departure for Isidor should suit all parties if that replacement arrives. This is a 25-year-old striker in the prime of his career, who has proved in small doses that he&#8217;s capable of finding the back of the net in the top flight. There&#8217;s good reason why a whole host of sides were interested in January.<\/p>\n<p>Isidor&#8217;s effort from the bench against Aston Villa last month proved his value. When it&#8217;s not Brobbey, it should be Sunderland&#8217;s backup striker. Without that competition, the ruthless nature of the Premier League calendar will catch up to just about any side.<\/p>\n<p>So, whilst the forward wants to quit this summer, those in Wearside must not open the door until they&#8217;ve found their replacement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballfancast.com\/sunderland-could-sign-best-winger-since-clarke-azeez\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Read next: Sunderland could sign their best winger since Clarke in \u00a320m deal<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"sunderland-could-sign-best-winger-since-clarke-azeez\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                                                                                                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballfancast.com\/sunderland-could-sign-best-winger-since-clarke-azeez\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                        <img width=\"440\" height=\"248\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"jack-clarke-sunderland-championship\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/jack-clarke-championship.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/jack-clarke-championship.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>Related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \">\n<p>\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballfancast.com\/sunderland-could-sign-best-winger-since-clarke-azeez\/\" title=\"Sunderland could sign their best winger since Clarke in \u00a320m deal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t\tSunderland could sign their best winger since Clarke in \u00a320m deal<br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t<\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Sunderland could sign their best winger since Jack Clarke with a \u00a320m swoop for this attacker.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballfancast.com\/sunderland-wilson-isidor-ready-to-leave-this-summer-contract-twist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wilson Isidor is now &#8220;ready to quit&#8221; Sunderland this summer after losing his place to impressive signing Brian Brobbey in the club&#8217;s first season back in the Premier League.
