French U20 International Arrives

There’s nothing official this side of the water but El-Hadji Ba claims French-side that he’s agreed a three-year deal with Sunderland.

French U20 international Ba claimed in French paper L’Equipe that he’s joining The Black Cats on a Bosman free transfer, to become the fourth arrival at The Stadium of Light this summer.

The highly rated midfielder could well begin next season in the development squad with his signing not only one for the here and now but the long-term also.

It’s believed that the compensation that Le Harve would gain for the youngster would be around £250,000, which should potentially (as long as this deal is officially confirmed) be a bargain.
