Xhaka and Sunderland – How far will they go? 🔥

Sunderland continues to defy all expectations in England and the Premier League. Trailing from the 4th minute against Chelsea, the Black Cats once again staged a spectacular comeback, winning 2-1 thanks to a goal from Chemsdine Talbi in stoppage time.

A regular starter and the team's driving force, Granit Xhaka delivered another top-level performance. The Swiss midfielder, who arrived in the Northeast last summer, is leading Sunderland to the top and has propelled the club to second place in the standings, at least temporarily. 💪

His teammate Dan Ballard was full of praise:

«"I didn't think one player could transform a team so much. Granit Xhaka is an exceptional motivator; he raised all the standards in the locker room."»

Wherever he goes, the former Basel player leaves a lasting impression. Even before this match, the legendary number 34 had already covered the most kilometers since the start of the Premier League season.

Match after match, the legend of Granit Xhaka is etched a little more in stone. ⭐️
