Isidor permanent at Sunderland; Arcus extended at Angers; Duverne to Nantes loan
Wilson Isidor leads today's brief after Sunderland confirmed his permanent transfer from Zenit St Petersburg, converting a loan arrangement into a full deal at the Stadium of Light. The 25-year-old centre-forward, valued at €18m on Transfermarkt, is now tied to the Black Cats on a permanent basis — a significant piece of business for a Sunderland side pushing for promotion in the Championship. Isidor was Haiti's most dangerous attacker across the World Cup campaign and his retention at a high-profile English club underlines his market standing.
Also worth noting: Carlens Arcus has extended his contract at Angers SCO, according to Yahoo Sports, with the club confirming the full-back's renewal after announcing the departures of veteran players Capelle and Bamba. Arcus, 29, remains a fixture at the newly promoted Ligue 1 side and is one of Haiti's most consistent performers in Europe's top five leagues.
On the transfer front, Transfermarkt records Jean-Kévin Duverne departing La Gantoise on loan to FC Nantes, a move that would give the centre-back regular Ligue 1 minutes ahead of the new season.
Martin Expérience's contract at AS Nancy expired today (30 June 2026) per Flashscore data, making his immediate future unclear.
