According to some French football websites this evening, it’s claimed that Sunderland have signed loanee Yann M’Vila, and he could be unveiled tomorrow!

 

Other sites are saying the French international has signed a preliminary agreement with the Black Cats, although nothing has been mentioned yet in the UK press.

David Moyes made is clear when he took over Sunderland that he was interested in signing both successful loanee’s from last season, the other being American DeAndre Yedlin.  Moyes followed that up with it had to be for the right price, as it’s known M’Vila would have to take a pay cut in leaving Russian side Rubin Kazan.

M’Vila was outstanding for Sunderland last season and played a major part in the winning battle to stay in the premier league.
