Manchester City captain Richard Dunne is on his way to Sunderland in a £4 million deal.

The Sun says the centre-half is on his way out after nine years at Manchester City as Eastlands manager Mark Hughes wants to shake up his squad for next season's trophy hunt.

Dunne, 29, joined City after being released from Everton and established himself as one of the toughest defenders in the game.

Dunne can also expect to pocket a few more quid with the switch - with his current wages of £35,000 a week increasing to £50,000.
