Sunderland New Boy To Be At West Ham Game | OneFootball

Nordi Mukiele is expected to be present at the Stadium of Light for Sunderland’s season opener against West Ham United today, according to journalist Ian Dennis.

Sunderland are determined to stay up in the Premier League and they have been active in the transfer window to give Regis Le Bris the best squad possible to take on the challenges in the Premier League.

Now entering the final part of the summer transfer window, the Black Cats are focused on bringing in new faces to add quality and depth to their defence.

They recently made the signing of their centre-back target Omar Alderete from Getafe and his move could see Jenson Seelt leave the Stadium of Light.

Le Bris has brought in Reinaldo and Arthur Masuaku to strengthen the left side of the defence and he is pushing to complete a move for Paris Saint-Germain’s right-back Mukiele.

Sunderland have agreed a transfer fee with PSG in recent days which will see the French outfit pocketing a fee in the region of €11m for the 27-year-old right-back.

It has been claimed that his move will be confirmed by Sunderland within the next 24 hours.

The player is expected to be in the Stadium of Light for Sunderland’s first Premier League game of the season against West Ham United today.

Le Bris’ side will want to begin their season on a positive note and Mukiele will be able to get a first glimpse of his new team during the game.

The 27-year-old spent last season on loan to Bayer Leverkusen where he made 24 appearances, including five in the Champions League.
