Sunderland have agreed terms with Central Coast Mariners for the transfer of Nectarios Triantis.

The 20-year-old central defender is expected to join the Black Cats for an initial fee of £300,000.

Triantis is an Australia Under-20 international who is expected to move up to their under-23 squad this summer.

Triantis played 25 times for the Mariners and started as they beat Melbourne City in the A-League grand final at the weekend.

Sunderland are looking to reinforce their squad after reaching the play-offs in their first season back in the Championship for five years.

They suffered problems with injuries to central defenders at key moments of the season with Danny Batth, Dan Ballard and Aji Alese all missing for lengthy periods.

"The opportunity to join such a prestigious club is an honour and I'm really looking forward to heading to England and meeting my new teammates later this month," Triantis said.

"I'm ready for the challenge ahead and can't wait to get started. I would like to thank Nick Montgomery and the Central Coast Mariners for giving me the platform that led to this exciting next chapter in my life."

The transfer is subject to international clearance and cannot be completed until the transfer window opens next Wednesday.

Defender Trai Hume has signed a new four-year contract with Sunderland, to run to the summer of 2027.

The 21-year-old Northern Ireland international scored two goals in 34 games for the Black Cats last season, including the play-off semi-finals.

Hume, who previously played for Linfield and Ballymena, established himself as a first-team regular under boss Tony Mowbray last season.

"I'm still young and I'm certainly looking to play games," Hume said.

"Hopefully we can have another good season but there is lots of work over the summer."

Sporting director Kristjaan Speakman added: "Trai was very patient in his first twelve months and worked tirelessly to refine his game.

"Since the new year he's gone from strength to strength, grown in confidence and his performances merit an improved and extended contract."

underland have signed former Blackburn attacking-midfielder Bradley Dack on a one-year deal.

The 29-year-old reunites with Black Cats manager Tony Mowbray, who he played under during his time at Rovers.

Dack scored 57 goals in 173 appearances in a six-year spell with Rovers despite missing a large chunk of games through separate cruciate ligament injuries.

"To play in front of 40,000 every week at the Stadium of Light was a huge pull for me," Dack told the club website.

"I hope my experience and style of play can add something different to the group, and I can't wait to pull on the shirt for the first time."

The deal includes a club option for an additional year.

Greenwich-born Dack had spells at Wimbledon and Charlton before joining Gillingham where he played 185 games, scoring 38 goals.

His form with the Gills attracted Rovers' attention, prompting a move to the north-west in June 2017 that brought promotion to the Championship in his first season.

He scored 18 goals in that triumph, followed that with 15 in the second-tier, and had nine goals before his first knee injury in 2019.

Last season he netted seven goals in 33 appearances before ending his six-season stay at Rovers this summer.
