Sessègnon And Muntari Sign For The Lads

After weeks of speculation Sunderland AFC have made their ambitions clear by bringing in two top-quality signings to help strengthen the midfield.

Supporters everywhere have been salivating at the thought of seeing Sessègnon and Muntari in the famous red and white stripes and that dream is now very much a reality.

The dazzling Stéphane Sessègnon has signed on a three and a half year deal for around £4m and can’t wait to hit the floor running. Sessègnon is a quick, technically gifted, versatile, attacking player who can play anywhere in midfield but he prefers operating on the right hand side. Here is a video to whet your appetite and hopefully a positive sign of things to come from the ex-PSG man:

Sulley Muntari on the other hand is a high energy, committed defensive midfield player. Signed by Inter originally by Mancini, he was a major part of Jose Mourinho’s Serie A and Champions league winning side. Sulley is a tenacious ball winner but also likes to get forward, he is regularly described as a “box to box midfielder”.

Muntari is a proven Premiership player, having already plyed his trade at Portsmouth under then manager Harry Redknapp. He helped bring Pompey silverware, hopefully he can do the same on Wearside. It’s also worth mentioning he’ll be in good company at Sunderland, linking up with fellow Ghanaian team-mates John Mensah and Asamoah Gyan.

Haway the lads!
