Isidor has five goals in 30 Premier League appearances this term, with four of those coming in his first nine Premier League games.

Everton and Nottingham Forest wanted to sign the Sunderland star in a permanent deal in the winter transfer window. and also showed interest in a late-window loan, but there was not enough time to get a deal done.
