Sunderland boss: Prica signed as cover for Jones

Sunderland boss Roy Keane admits he signed the Swedish forward Rade Prica as part insurance for striker Kenwyne Jones.

"Prica is a good six foot and he's got a good leap on him," Keane said of the 27-year-old. "We needed something like that if anything happened to Kenwyne."

Price struck on his debut in last night's victory over Birmingham City.
