New signing Jewison Bennette is ready for a 'new challenge' after crossing the Atlantic to join Sunderland. The Costa Rica international's arrival from CS Herediano for an undisclosed fee was confirmed on Thursday, and he signed a four-year deal with the club holding an option to extend his stay by a further 12 months.
And Bennette is looking forward to getting to work. "I'm very happy and I'm looking forward to taking on this new challenge," said the 18-year-old winger.
"I've come here with the aim of helping the team as much as I can, and hopefully soon we can make a push to get up to the Premier League. That's what you work hard for and train for every day, to put the team in a position where we can keep growing and achieve our objectives."
