BBC NEWS – Incoming reports from Brighton indicate that former Sunderland attacking midfielder Tommy Watson has made his way back to the North East of England this morning, where he is undergoing medical tests ahead of a six-month loan return to Sunderland AFC. The 20-year-old, who came through Sunderland’s academy before joining Brighton, has struggled for consistent playing time on the South Coast and is now set for a homecoming that could reignite his career.

Watson, once considered one of the brightest prospects to emerge from Sunderland’s youth setup, has found first-team opportunities limited in Brighton’s Premier League squad. A loan move back to the Stadium of Light is seen as the perfect opportunity for him to regain form, fitness, and confidence in a familiar environment. Sunderland officials believe his creativity and attacking flair will add much-needed depth to their midfield as they continue their push in the Championship this season.

If the medical and final paperwork are completed without issues, Watson could be unveiled as a Sunderland player before the weekend fixture. His return is expected to be welcomed warmly by the fans, many of whom still remember his earlier breakthrough performances. The move symbolizes not just a second chance for Watson but also Sunderland’s ambition to strengthen their squad with players who understand the culture and spirit of the club.
