Wilson Isidor Ready To Quit Sunderland After Five Goals

wilson isidor is ready to leave Sunderland this summer after falling out of the starting lineup. The 25-year-old forward has scored five Premier League goals in 30 appearances, but he has not started a game since early December.

Sunderland and Wilson Isidor

That slide out of the XI comes after a winter in which he was heavily linked with a move away. Sunderland set a £25 million asking price in January, yet no transfer materialized as Everton, Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace and Burnley showed interest.

Isidor arrived at this point with his first Premier League season already producing a useful return, but the club’s stance and his minutes tell a different story. He is in the final two years of his contract, which leaves Sunderland weighing a sale against the possibility of keeping a striker who has already been part of their return to the top flight.

Haiti and the 2026 World Cup

The forward’s next step may not be shaped only by club football. Born in Rennes and holding Haitian citizenship, he made his debut for Haiti during the March international break, featured twice and scored once, and he is expected to join Haiti for the 2026 World Cup.

That international schedule adds another layer to Sunderland’s summer planning. Haiti are in Group C with Scotland, Brazil and Morocco, so any move for Isidor will have to account for a player who is likely to spend part of the next cycle on the World Cup stage while Sunderland look at exits as well as arrivals.

For Sunderland, the issue is straightforward: a striker with five league goals, 30 appearances and a price tag set at £25 million is no longer just a squad option. If he leaves, the club will have to replace production and decide whether the early-December stoppage in his starts was a temporary drop or the start of a clean break.
