Sunderland have completed the signing of striker Andy Cole who has
penned a one-year deal with the Black Cats.
Cats boss Roy Keane believes his former Manchester United team-mate
will add some much-needed experience to his squad as they look to
survive in the Premiership, and is delighted to have him on
board.
Cole has not signed in time to figure against Liverpool this
weekend but with a full week of training under his belt, he should
be ready for the trip to Old Trafford next Saturday if
selected.
"I met with Andy on Monday in Manchester and he has agreed to come
here for a season," Keane revealed. "He's having a medical today
and his experience on the field will be vital.
"A lot of our players are lacking experience in the Premier League.
That hasn't really been an issue to me, but if a player like Andy
is available and he fancies coming to us, he's certainly a player
we have to consider."
