Alf Common, The first player to be transferred for £1,000, when he was bought by Middlesbrough from Sunderland in 1905.

This is a list of notable footballers who have played for Sunderland from when the club turned professional in 1886 to the present. Generally, this means all players that have played 100 or more first-class matches for the club. However, some players who have played fewer matches are also included. This includes those who have represented their country whilst playing for the club,[1] and players who have set a club playing record, such as goalscoring or transfer fee records.[2] Appearances are for first-team competitive matches only, including substitute appearances, while wartime and local cup matches are excluded. Statistics are correct as of June 22, 2008.
