Black Cat Got a New Boss!

The official, breaking news is here! Sunderland have appointed a new boss to lead the team moving forward!

David Moyes, former manager for Everton, Manchester United and Real Sociedad, has been appointed as Sunderland’s new manager following Sam Allardyce leaving to lead England team.

Moyes signed for a four years deal with Sunderland which chairman Ellis Short says that he is the “first choice” candidate as Sunderland’s boss.

Short further added on that “He is a man whose football pedigree speaks for itself and is someone I have long admired. I have spoken with him on many occasions and I have always been hugely impressed.”

“He was my number one managerial target for the last five appointments, but his desire to honour existing contracts meant we were not able to bring him to Sunderland previously. To be able to finally welcome him as our manager is fantastic news for the club. ”

“The fact that David has committed to a four-year deal is a clear demonstration of his belief in what he can achieve here.”

“It is our aim to become a better, stronger and more stable football club and with a manager of David’s calibre and experience at the helm, we have a fantastic opportunity to begin looking upwards, rather than downwards every season”.

Meanwhile, Moyes expressed that  “I am delighted to have joined Sunderland. I am relishing the challenge and excited by the opportunity. ”

“I have taken over a big British club, with a great support and I’m looking forward to working in the Premier League again. ”
