Wylde continued his good goalscoring form at Oldham finishing top scorer in each of his three full seasons there, in total scoring 51 league goals in 113 appearances. At the end of his contract with Oldham, Wylde moved abroad to play for top Portuguese side Sporting CP for the 1983–84 season. He was very much a fringe player with Sporting and his chances in the first team were limited. Wylde was brought back to the English game during the 1984–85 season by his old manager at Wednesday, Len Ashurst, who was now in charge at Sunderland and this gave Wylde his only opportunity to play top-level football in England. He played 11 games that season for Sunderland scoring three goals including one against Liverpool at Anfield in 1–1 draw. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] — Wikipedia
