Sunderland have completed the signing of former Everton and West Brom forward Victor Anichebe, the club announced on Friday.
Anichebe joins on a one-year deal as the club's ninth signing of 2016-17.
He is no stranger to Sunderland manager David Moyes, having played under the Scotsman at Everton between 2006 and 2013.
"I'm really happy to be here at a great club," said Anichebe, an 11-time Nigeria international.
"I have a lot of good friends here and everyone knows that I know the manager really well.
"He brought me through as a young player and was a big factor in me coming here.
"I had a few options in England and Europe but the manager was a huge pull for me. He knows me inside out and I feel like he can get the best out of me."
Their next fixture once the international break concludes is a home clash against Moyes' and Anichebe's former side Everton.
