Born in Prudhoe , Northumberland, Honeyman joined Sunderland 's academy in 2004 at the age of 10. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] He made his first-team debut on 15 February 2015 in the fifth round of the FA Cup , replacing Ricky Álvarez for the final four minutes of a 2–0 away loss to Bradford City . [ 6 ] Manager Gus Poyet admitted that Honeyman would have been put on earlier had the team not had injury concerns, admitting that "George would have been coming on earlier because we needed a bit of his running between the lines and ability to make runs". [ 7 ] He was included in the matchday squad for one Premier League match that season , remaining unused in a 1–1 draw to Stoke City . [ 8 ] On 16 October 2015, Honeyman was loaned to National League club Gateshead for a month, as fellow Sunderland youngster Lynden Gooch had done the previous season. [ 9 ] He made his league debut the following day, starting in a 2–2 home draw against Altrincham . [ 10 ] On 31 October, he netted the first goal of his career, the winner in a 3–2 win away to Boreham Wood . [ 11 ] He scored his first goal for Sunderland in a 1–0 EFL Cup first round win to Bury on 10 August 2017. [ 12 ] Six days later, he scored his first league goal to open a 1–1 draw away to Sheffield Wednesday . [ 13 ] In August 2018, as Sunderland prepared for the League One season following a second successive relegation, Honeyman was appointed captain at the age of 23 by new manager Jack Ross , as John O'Shea left for Reading . He became the first academy-produced player to be club captain since Michael Gray . [ 14 ] — Wikipedia
