It's a Dunne deal: Manchester City defender set to join Sunderland

22 April 2009 11:57
Defender Richard Dunne will leave Manchester City after nine years at the club and   join Sunderland in a £4million deal in the summer, according to reports. Dunne, 29, established himself as one of the toughest centre-halves in the game at City after being released by Everton in 2000. But City boss Mark Hughes wants to shake up his squad in a bid to win trophies next after a lacklustre campaign in his first season in charge at Eastlands. The Sun reports Sunderland boss Ricky Sbragia wants to add Dunne tohis side and make him captain if the Black Cats avoid relegation this season. Sbragia will also launch a £3.5m joint bid for West Brom duo Jonathan Greening and James Morrison.
