Sunderland manager pays initial £3.5m for Manchester United striker while Rafael Benitez signs promising French defender.
Sunderland have completed the signing of striker Fraizer Campbell from Manchester United on a four-year deal for an initial fee of £3.5million, potentially rising to £6million, the club have announced on their website. The England Under-21 striker was close to agreeing a deal with Hull City but instead becomes Steve Bruce's first signing as Sunderland manager.
Elsewhere, Liverpool have signed Chris Mavinga from Paris Saint-Germain for an undisclosed fee.
The 18-year-old left back, who can also play in the centre of defence, has played for France at Under-18 level and teams up with former PSG striker David Ngog, who moved to Anfield a year ago.
Liverpool also announced on Saturday that Moroccan attacking midfielder Nabil El Zhar had signed an extension to his contract to keep him at Anfield until 2012. El Zhar, who made 19 appearances for the Reds last season, joined the club from Saint-Etienne in October 2006.
