Trevan Farooq Sanusi (born 25 April 2007) is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for French Ligue 1 club Lorient on loan from Premier League club Newcastle United. He is an England youth international.[3]
Sanusi has been described as a left-winger,[4] and was in the academy at Birmingham City prior to joining Newcastle United in September 2023, amid reported interest from other Premier League clubs.[5]
Sanusi trained with the Newcastle first-team in the summer of 2024 and was the only player to feature in all six of Newcastle’s official pre-season friendly matches in July 2024.[6] The club reportedly turned down loan opportunities in order to keep him training at Newcastle with the first team squad at the start of the 2024–25 season.[7][8] Sanusi was included in the Newcastle match day squad for the FA Cup third round match against Bromley on 12 January 2025, and made his debut as a second-half substitute in a 3–1 win.[9][10]
On 1 September 2025, Sanusi was loaned by Lorient in French Ligue 1. He scored his first senior professional goal on 20 September in the Coupe de France against Gosier.[11]
International career
[edit]
Sanusi is an England youth international, and scored for England U18 against Switzerland U18 in September 2024.[12][13]
Born in England, Sanusi has Nigerian heritage.[14]
