Sunderland boss Roy Keane has confirmed former Manchester United team-mate Quinton Fortune will not be joining the club after a lengthy trial on Wearside.

He said: "Quinton left the club last week. We just felt it was not the right option, but we wish him well because he is a great lad.

"But in the position we are in, it would be unfair to bring in a player who has not played in six, seven, eight months."
