A chant, posted by a group of Sunderland fans, made its way around social media with the words “Sunderland’s going up and the Mags are going down".
Indeed, it was seen by Saint-Maximin, who has now mocked the video after two teams’ fortunes spiralled into different directions.
He tweeted: “I'm looking for a song that a lot of people sent me in March but I can't remember the title, it was something like "Sunluns going up and the mags are going down" Who can help me please?"
