3 months agoWelcome to #SAFC, Aaron Connolly! 🇮🇪✍️
The Republic of Ireland international arrived on Wearside earlier this week and has signed a one-year deal at the Stadium of Light.
Connolly spent last season at Hull City, scoring eight goals in 13 Sky Bet Championship starts.
Following his arrival, he said: “I feel very privileged to sign for Sunderland. I have only been up here for a short while, but it’s easy to see what this Club means to people and the atmosphere on Saturday showed that. I want to represent that in the right way and pay back the faith the Club has placed in me by playing well and doing what I love more than anything, which is scoring goals. I’m ready to move forward with my career after facing some challenges in recent times and I fully understand the huge opportunity I have ahead of me.”
