Luke O'Nien - shoulder


11 July 2025 by Thomas Anderson

Sunderland defender Luke O’Nien (30) will miss the beginning of the 2025–26 Premier League campaign after undergoing shoulder surgery to repair a dislocation suffered during the Championship play-off final in May.

O’Nien was forced off early in the Wembley play-off final against Sheffield United after dislocating his shoulder while celebrating the decisive goal.

Sunderland’s injury report confirmed O’Nien has now begun his rehabilitation after the operation, alongside Aji Alese, with both expected to miss the first three matches of the Premier League season. (source: Sunderland)
