Exclusive: Jayden Danns to sign new Liverpool deal as Sunderland loan agreed
Liverpool star Jayden Danns is set to sign a new contract before heading out on loan to Sunderland, sources have told Football Insider.
The 19-year-old is poised to go on his first senior loan away from Anfield after coming through the ranks on Merseyside.
Football Insider first revealed interest from Sunderland and Blackburn Rovers in Danns on Sunday (2 February).
The Black Cats have won the race for his signature and will bring him to the Stadium of Light after agreeing a loan deal running until the end of the 2024-25 campaign.
Danns, son of former Crystal Palace midfielder Neil, has made four senior Liverpool appearances this term.
The striker has been with the Reds since the age of eight and signed his previous deal last year (2024).
He got on the scoresheet for Arne Slot’s side last month after coming off the bench in the 4-0 FA Cup victory over Accrington Stanley.

Sunderland sit fourth in the Championship and are six points adrift of an automatic promotion spot after a strong start to the season.
