Sunderland winger Jack Diamond has signed a new three-year deal at the Stadium of Light.
The 21-year-old, who has made his senior debut for the club in October 2018, has signed on the dotted line until June 2024.
Diamond has made 27 first-team appearances during the 2020-21 campaign after spending last season on loan with Harrogate Town.
Diamond scored his first goal for the Black Cats in the EFL Trophy this season and scored his first league goal in the resounding 4-1 win over Lincoln City earlier in the campaign.
Speaking to SAFC after signing a new deal, Diamond said: “I’ve been here since I was 14, so to be offered the chance to play for Sunderland – when they are on the up – is a fantastic opportunity for me.
"I’ve broken into the first team this season under the new Head Coach and I’m pleased to be rewarded with a new contract, but my goal stays the same and that’s to play at the highest level I possibly can with this club.”
Head Coach Lee Johnson said: “I’m delighted for Jack that he has signed a new contract.
"This is just the start for him – he has fantastic potential and some great attributes, and his performances are getting stronger and stronger as the days go by.
"We are very excited about Jack’s future with Sunderland AFC.”
