Will Still has given his ‘honest’ opinion on how he intends to deal with Sunderland’s interest this summer.
Will Still has coached Ligue 1 team Reims since 2022 and has immediately gone viral owing to his age of 30, prompting the club to be fined €25,000 per match for not holding a UEFA Pro Licence.
The Belgian-English coach has done quite well since then, with Reims presently six points away from a Europa League spot next season.
Still was first connected with a transfer to Sunderland following Tony Mowbray’s dismissal in December, and he was claimed to have held negotiations with the club. However, they ultimately made the error of picking Michael Beale instead.
Unsurprisingly, his own exit resulted in to even more speculation around Still, and the 31-year-old wasn’t afraid to address it.
Only days after Beale’s departure, Still told The Athletic that he would ‘love’ to join a ‘ambitious’ Championship team, fueling speculation that he could go to Wearside this summer.
There has been little talk since, with Kristjaan Speakman likely considering all of his alternatives in the months remaining before Mike Dodds is formally replaced.
Still has been questioned about his candor on the podcast L’Enfer du Banc.
