Patterson hails from North Shields and came up in the Sunderland ranks, making a first-team debut with the club in 2020.
Sunderland sent Patterson out on loan to Notts County in September 2021, but he was recalled in January 2022 and established himself as Sunderland’s first-choice goalkeeper.
Patterson helped Sunderland win promotion back to the Championship and just hasn’t looked back, racking up 100 first-team appearances for the Black Cats.
Now 23, Patterson has one England Under-21 cap to his name and has been hailed as ‘very talented’ by former Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray.
Future England caps could be on the way, just like former Black Cats talent Pickford and the former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson.
Whether Patterson would settle for being second choice is unclear but the Premier League big boys are paying close attention and Sunderland can expect offers on the table in the coming months.
