Sunderland have confirmed the double signing of Djibril Cisse and David Healy.

Cisse has joined the north-east club from Sunderland on loan while Healy has signed a three-year deal after joining for an undisclosed fee from Fulham.

Keane told the club's website, safc.com: "The signings show our ambitions and intentions.

The Sunderland manager added: "We're delighted with the new faces we've brought in, we've been working hard all summer to significantly improve the squad."

The duo become the Black Cats' fifth and sixth signing of the summer following the arrivals of Teemu Tainio, Pascal Chimbonda, Steed Malbranque and El-Hadji Diouf.
