Australian defender Nectarios Triantis, 22, has agreed to leave Sunderland this summer to join Minnesota United in a permanent move. The decision is motivated by his need for regular football, which he would not receive at Sunderland, as they are building a team for the Premier League. Sunderland have been active in the transfer market, bringing in players like Granit Xhaka, which has further limited Triantis's chances for regular playtime. The information is confirmed by journalist Pete O’Rourke. According to Transfermarkt, the player's current market value is €1.00m.
