Sunderland AFC have completed the deadline-day signing of Antoine Semenyo.
The Bristol City forward has moved to the Stadium of Light on loan until the end of the 2019-20 season, having made seven first-team appearances for the Sky Bet Championship outfit during the current campaign.
After impressing during a brief loan spell at Bath City, the 20-year-old made his Robins debut in May 2018 before joining Newport County ahead of the 2018-19 season.
Semenyo scored six goals in 32 appearances for the Exiles before being recalled to City’s first-team squad in January 2019.
The forward will be available for selection when SAFC face Portsmouth at Fratton Park on Saturday.
After arriving on deadline day, Semenyo said: “It’s been a long wait to get the deal done, but it’s finally signed and I’ve joined a great club. It’s got so much history and I’ve heard so many great things about it from lots of people, so I’m proud to be a part of that.
“I’m looking forward to working with the manager because I want to improve every day. I can’t wait to get started.”
SAFC manager Phil Parkinson added: “I’m pleased we have been able to bring Antoine to the club. He’s got pace and power which are qualities we highlighted and wanted to add to the squad.
“We look forward to working with him and he goes straight into the squad for tomorrow’s game at Portsmouth.”
