Manchester United's Wes Brown completes Sunderland move
Sunderland have completed the signing of Manchester United defender Wes Brown for an undisclosed fee.
Brown, 31, has agreed a four-year deal with the Black Cats, who are also chasing his United colleagues John O'Shea and Darron Gibson.
Brown made his United debut in 1998 and went on to make 361 appearances.
Sunderland boss Steve Bruce said: "We are delighted to welcome a player of Wes' ability, experience and character to the club."
Brown, who has 23 England caps, won two Champions League titles, five Premier League winners' medals, two FA Cups and two League Cups with the Red Devils.
However, the Da Silva twins, Fabio and Rafael, are above him in the pecking order to play at right-back and the arrival of Phil Jones alongside central defenders Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic and Chris Smalling suggests that opportunities to play first-team football next season would have been limited at Old Trafford.
Bruce added: "He has been a fantastic professional for Manchester United through the years and not only will he strengthen our defensive options, he will also bring with him a winning mentality and level of maturity which can only be positive for the players around him."
Brown is expected to be joined at the Stadium of Light by O'Shea, 30, who travelled to Sunderland on Thursday for a medical, but the future of Gibson, 23, is less clear, with Newcastle also showing an interest.
Meanwhile, Sunderland chief executive Steve Walton and marketing and commercial director Lesley Callaghan are both to leave the club.We come not to play.Comment

The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.Comment

O'Shea and Brown joining Sunderland.
Didi really needs to step up and get himself in the Premiership so we can offload some of our dross.
£6m plus two decent earners off the wage bill.

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.Comment
