Signing session: Meet the new boys this week

Sunderland AFC supporters can welcome new signings Bryan Oviedo, Darron Gibson and Joleon Lescott to the club at a signing session later this week.

Taking place at the Stadium of Light on Thursday 23 February, the new trio will be at the club’s flagship store signing autographs, posing for photographs and interacting with fans from 3pm.

Fans are advised to arrive early to make sure they meet the players.

The red and white army flocked to an open training session at the SoL on Monday, with over 9,000 supporters watching on as David Moyes put his players through their paces.

And club captain John O’Shea hailed the event and the importance of engaging with the Sunderland supporters.

“It was a great afternoon,” said the skipper.

“To see so many fans, especially youngsters, turn out to watch us training is fantastic and we are truly grateful to have such fantastic support.”
