For Syrians, you'll want a bigger wheel (at least 10"). These are all popular options (assuming you're in the U.S.):
For Syrians, I'd say bare minimum floor space is 650 sq. inches, but larger is always better (some countries recommend twice that). If you're in the U.S., it's virtually impossible to find a large enough cage, so many people go the DIY route using bins or other creative options. For example, using the IKEA Detolf will provide 1,082 sq inches of floor space (and is cheaper than most large cages anyway).
You'll also want to give him a sand bath AND a separate sand area for a litter box. (So two sand areas). Child's play sand (available at hardware stores) is a great cheap option, but this is often recommended as well: https://www.amazon.com/Supreme-Tiny-Friends-Chinchilla-Bathing/dp/B005OCXN1M
Rather than getting a hamster ball, it's generally preferable to hamster-proof a room (or block off part of a room) and allow them free-roaming time as often as you can. It's great exercise, lets them explore, and presents an opportunity for you to have fun interactions (let them run around and tire themselves out first, though).
A great wheel 11inch, very quiet. The front comes off for easy cleaning. Can be hung upside down if needed (mine is upside down because wheel stands don't work great in deep bedding).
One is 11 inches the other is 9. My male Syrian is fairly small so the 9 is great and silent with a weighted bottom that can sit on top of the bedding.

This here is pretty much the best wheel you can get for any rodent:

Of course you have to get the correct size for the type of hamster and cage.
My Hamsters loved it and where never in danger of injury.
One downside is, that you will have to clean it on a regular basis if your hamster pees in it a lot.
any amazon.X i think its one of the most sold wheels, its an american product but as its actually really good for hamsters, you can get it anywhere in europe too
8" for robos

i picked random colors, they are available in many colors
With the wheel I would just watch. If his back is bend while running then you should get a bigger one, otherwise it's fone. If you're worried with him flying out of the wheel, there are wheels where the side is closed and only some holes are in it so that the hamster can climb in but not so easily fall out :) like this, for example (it's bigger than you need, but it's just so I can illustrate what I mean xD) https://www.amazon.com/Wodent-Wheel-Senior-Tail-Shield/dp/B01MRWR7MQ
As for the sunflower head:not really. Any dried sunflower head should do. You should be able to get them from your local pet store in the aisle for birds. Oh and if your already there, grab some flax. Trust me, your hamster will go crazy for it. It's like cat mint, only that it's hamsters favourite snack xD
The sand you have sounds good. I just overlooked your sand bath 😅 Thank you for caring so much about your hamster. He will have a lovely home ❤

Yes it says it's for sugar gliders but my two girls love it and can easily run on it, unless there is bedding underneath so we usually have to put the wheel down first and then fill tank with bedding but they use it just fine! & I like it also
