Sunderland signed Belgian winger Malick Fofana on deadline day. The young player arrives at the Premier League club from Lyon, coached by Portuguese Paulo Fonseca.
Fofana is another signing by the English club to strengthen their squad during the winter transfer window. The Belgian winger joins Sunderland to compete in the Premier League.
The Belgian player was developed at Lyon, the French club where he had little opportunity to establish himself. The transfer to Sunderland represents an opportunity for Fofana to play with greater regularity in the top English league.
This signing occurred on the last day of the winter market, when many clubs accelerate negotiations to meet the transfer deadline.
