Aiden McGeady on the hunt for new club after five-year Sunderland stay ends

‘Thank you, Geads,’ the club posted.

AIDEN MCGEADY IS on the hunt for a new club after being released by Sunderland.

The 36-year-old Ireland winger was part of the Black Cats’ successful promotion to the Championship this season, but will now depart the club after five years.

“Everyone at Sunderland AFC would like to thank the players for their professionalism and commitment during their time at the club and wish them well for the future,” the club said in a statement today, as it confirmed its retained list for the 2022-23 season.

“Thank you, Geads,” they added on Twitter, alongside a highlights video.

McGeady was a peripheral figure at the Stadium of Light this season due to injury, but has featured 150 times and scored 36 goals since signing from Everton in July 2017.

His 2020/21 season was a memorable one, which he finished recognised in the PFA League One team of the year.

The former Celtic star is now being linked with a move back to the Scottish top-flight.

Glasgow-born McGeady has won 93 Irish senior caps.

    His Ashton style diving could have cost his team the game. He could easily have made some yards towards the posts for both his tries and given his kicker a much better chance of nailing the conversion. Awesome step and acceleration for that second try though.

    Thought the exact same thing. Talented but classless.

    It’s just silly. You get your biggest lad to come crash into us then we do the same with our biggest lad. Backward and archaic with little or no skill involved. Guess that’s why it’s mainly a colonial game with little worldwide appeal

    Most games are silly and most world wide games are English imported to keep stupid natives distracted while they raped and pillaged their lands. Distracted by playing, watching or commenting on the stupid games. Damn those tricky Brits

    Not many comments on any of the articles on TheScore.ie. Ever since they split the sections into different apps, people don’t seem to bother switching between them.
