The little brother is growing up: Bellingham is fueling Sunderland’s dreams

AFC Sunderland was already relegated to the third division. But now a young team with teenagers like Jobe Bellingham is fueling new dreams of the Premier League.

Lucky or unlucky? Opinions on the effect of black cats differ widely. When AFC Sunderland was looking for a new nickname for its team at the end of the 1990s, fans voted in a survey for “Black Cats”, despite the team’s traditional red and white striped jerseys.

But all this superstition did not bring them luck. After being relegated from the Premier League in 2017, the club even slipped down to the third division for four years, always accompanied by cameras for the Netflix series “Sunderland ’til I die”. But now, thanks to two teenagers, there is hope for a comeback.
