The latest information paints a very different picture from the viral claim. Sunderland are continuing their pre-season preparations, working on squad development and recruitment as they prepare for a demanding campaign. Le Bris has spoken about building the foundations for another big season rather than closing the club for an extended period.
The French coach played a major role in Sunderland’s remarkable progress last season, guiding the club to an impressive Premier League campaign and European qualification.
As a result, supporters should treat the alleged three-month shutdown announcement as unverified and misleading unless Sunderland AFC itself issues an official statement confirming it.
