The documentary took fans behind-the-scenes during the 2018/19 season.

Maja, who was just 19 at the time, netted an incredible 15 league goals in 24 matches as he became a fans' favourite.

His performances attracted interest from other clubs and the transfer saga became a major part of the series.

Maja left in January to sign for Bordeaux.

Sunderland owner Stewart Donald expressed his disappointment with striker's agent as the club failed to get him to agree a new contract.

Maja went to the French side and had loan spells back in England with Fulham and Stoke.

Last year he netted 17 goals as Bordeaux narrowly missed out on promotion back to Ligue 1 after they were controversially docked a point due to crowd trouble.

Maja has now been released by the club and is a free agent.
