Eliezer Mayenda set to leave Sunderland after Championship promotion season

Summary
Eliezer Mayenda, a striker brought in by Sunderland during a pressured summer window in 2023, is set to depart the club. Despite being one of four strikers signed that window, he was the only one who came close to making an impact. Mayenda became known for his positive energy ("vibes") and flashes of skill, and during Sunderland's 2024/2025 Championship promotion season, he truly came into his own. While his departure makes sense from a footballing perspective, it will be emotional for fans to see the popular 'vibesman' move on.
