He is a promising young player and is already an important player for Wolfsburg. Regular football with them will help him develop further and fulfill his potential.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The player&#8217;s contract with Sunderland runs until 2028, and Sunderland will be keen to recoup a significant sum for the player. It remains to be seen whether the two clubs will be able to reach an agreement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Sunderland have performed extremely well since being promoted to the Premier League and are pushing towards a top-half position this season. They need to strengthen their squad in January, and selling some unwanted players could provide the needed funds. It remains to be seen how the situation will develop in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunderland defender Jenson Seelt is currently on loan at German club VFL Wolfsburg.
