Healy joins Black Cats
Sunderland manager Mick McCarthy has completed the signing of Colin Healy on a two-year deal.
The Republic of Ireland midfielder has become McCarthy’s third summer signing after agreeing personal terms and passing a medical last week.
McCarthy is delighted to have secured his signature and he told the club’s official website, www.safc.com: “I’m thrilled Colin has joined us.
"There was some strong competition for his signature, including from some Premiership clubs, so it’s pleasing to have secured the services of a player of his quality.
“I know Colin well and I’m fully aware of his strengths. He’ll be a great addition to our squad.”
Healy left Celtic at the end of last season and the 23-year-old has been a target of McCarthy for some time.
