Sunderland manager David Moyes was reunited with Victor Anichebe on Friday after signing the former Everton striker on a free transfer.
The Nigerian expressed his delight about the move on his Tweeter page.

Anichebe had been looking for a new club since being released by West Bromwich Albion at the end of last season and Moyes has brought in the 28-year-old Nigerian after losing Fabio Borini to injury.
Borini’s groin problem left Moyes with Jermain Defoe as the only senior striker in his squad.
Anichebe was a youth-team player at Everton under Moyes and went on to make more than 130 appearances for the Toffees before joining West Brom.
