Sunderland recently sold 19-year-old winger Tommy Watson to Brighton for about £8M and reports suggest that Rigg could attract a much larger bid. One of the biggest reasons Rigg is a wanted man is due to his versatility which allows him to play across the middle of the park in defensive or attacking roles. This is highly regarded by Premier League teams, especially the likes of Everton and Liverpool who need upgrades in midfield.
Speaking about his teammate, Sunderland star Jobe Bellingham praised Rigg and the club for allowing him the opportunities he has had at the side.
"I think first and foremost Riggy really deserves it and I'm delighted that we can share it because I think it's really special.
"Both of our names will be attached to that forever because I love playing with him. We've got a really special bond on and off the pitch, we're really good mates.I think for the club it shows how they've improved and are amazing at nurturing young players. It's part of the make-up of the club now and the fans are completely behind it."
