Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan has finally completed his transfer to English side Sunderland from Rennes.
The £13million fee is a club record for the Black Cats as the Ghana international signs on a four-year deal after undergoing a medical on Tuesday morning.
Sunderland's previous record of £10million stood in the name of Darren Bent, who was signed in 2009.
Gyan, 24, scored three goals for Ghana at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and joins another Ghanaian, John Mensah who is on loan at Sunderland.
