Sunderland have brought experience to their defensive line following the signature of Reinildo Mandava on a free transfer.
After his agreement with Atletico Madrid expires, the 31-year-old has agreed on a two-year contract.
Joining Enzo Le Fee, Habib Diarra, and Noah Sadiki in a hectic summer for the newly-promoted club, the Mozambique international becomes The Black Cats’ fourth acquisition.
With La Liga and the Champions League with Atletico, the left-back brings top-level pedigree to Tyne and Wear side.
Speaking following the move, Reinildo said joining Regis Le Bris’ team is the fulfillment of a lifelong ambition to play in the Premier League.
Expressing his willingness to fight and give everything for the badge, he dubbed the club “historic”.
The Mozambican also vowed to infuse leadership and energy into the group, promising to share his knowledge with both younger colleagues and supporters.
He said that his main aim is to make the fans happy and he is prepared to give it all on the field.
