Sunderland defender Dan Ballard continues to impress this season with consistent performances in the Championship. The Northern Ireland international has become one of the club’s most reliable centre-backs, delivering strong defensive displays and showing leadership at the back.
According to reports, Premier League scouts have been keeping a close eye on Ballard, as his form has steadily improved over the past few months. His tackling accuracy, aerial strength and calmness under pressure have made him a key player in Sunderland’s push for a higher league finish.
Fans and pundits believe that if Ballard maintains this level of performance, a top-flight move or a bigger contract extension could soon be on the cards. For now, the 24-year-old remains focused on helping Sunderland climb the table and securing more positive results.
