Sky Sports confirmed on Sunday that Spanish forward Mark Gioia will transfer to Sunderland after Chelsea finalized loan arrangements. The 19-year-old striker approaches completion of a season-long move pending medical examinations within hours. Chelsea agreed to the temporary deal as part of their squad restructuring efforts. Sunderland prepares to welcome their ninth summer signing amid ambitious Premier League survival plans for the 2025/2026 campaign. The Black Cats have already secured eight new players through active transfer window participation.

Gioia contributed six goals across 16 official appearances during Chelsea's 2024/2025 season before losing his position. The London club recruited attacking reinforcements, Liam Delap from Ipswich Town and João Pedro from Brighton, to strengthen their forward options. These acquisitions pushed the young Spaniard further down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge. Meanwhile, Senegalese striker Nicolas Jackson faces an uncertain future under manager Enzo Maresca's tactical preferences. Reports suggest Jackson has dropped to third choice among Chelsea's attacking alternatives.
