Jul 17 2007 Liverpool Daily Post
EVERTON suffered another potential blow in the transfer market last night when reported target Kieran Richardson moved from Manchester United to Sunderland for an undisclosed fee, believed to be in the region of £5.5million.
The 22-year-old England midfielder signed a four-year deal with the Wearsiders after successfully coming through a medical yesterday morning.
Richardson said: "It’s an exciting move for me.
"I know all about Roy Keane and I’m looking forward to playing for his team. Sunderland is a big club and it’s a great move for me."
Manager Roy Keane, who played alongside Richardson at Old Trafford, said: "I’m delighted that we’ve been able to bring Kieran to Sunderland.
"Having worked with him in the past I’m well aware of what a good player and a good lad he is.
"He’s ready for a fresh challenge and hopefully Sunderland will provide that for him."
