He will look to get his career back on track with regular football now. He would have struggled for regular gametime at the Premier League club and it makes sense for him to move on.
There is no doubt that he is an impressive player, but he’s not good enough to start in the Premier League regularly. Sunderland are looking to build a team capable of competing in the Premier League regularly. They have been very active in the transfer market and they have brought in quality signings like Granit Xhaka.
It is evident that they have outgrown players like Triantis. It makes sense for the midfielder to move on and join a club where he will get regular opportunities. Sitting on the bench at Sunderland at this stage of his career does not make any sense.
