Defender pledges future
Sunderland, 17:23, October 23, 2009 ,
Nyron Nosworthy has pledged his future to Sunderland by signing a new deal to keep him at the club until 2012.
The 29-year-old has impressed Steve Bruce since he arrived at the club and the Black Cats boss had no hesitation in offering the former Gillingham man a new deal.
Bruce told the club's official website: "Nyron knows this club inside out and is a hugely popular member of the squad. He has impressed me since I came here in the summer.
"He has a great work ethic and typifies the physically strong presence that good teams need in the Premier League, so I'm delighted he has committed his future to Sunderland."
