Sunderland's Roy Keane bids £2.5m for Bolton's El-Hadji Diouf

El-Hadji Diouf is heading to Sunderland in a shock £2.5m deal.
Black Cats boss Roy Keane tabled an offer to Bolton for the Senegal international on Friday and the deal is expected to go ahead tomorrow.
Diouf has been desperate to leave the Reebok Stadium ever since he performed a farewell lap of honour in their final home game against Sunderland last season.
But Keane's offer is the first of the summer so far - and has been accepted by Wanderers chairman Phil Gartside.
Former Liverpool star Diouf has only one year left on his contract and his £30,000 a week wages are no problem for Keane.
