Uh Oh:
Lorik Cana said he chose Sunderland over Everton because the Black Cats showed more desire for his signature.
The former Marseille captain told the Echo he was in talks with the Merseysiders as well as German clubs Hamburg and Werder Bremen.
But Sunderland stepped in with the most positive approach and Cana completed his switch while the Wearsiders were participating in the Amsterdam Tournament last week.
The 26-year-old, who speaks excellent English, took part in his first Sunderland training sessions yesterday and is pleased to get his career with the club under way.
"I had interest from Germany and we were talking, but then I had contacts with clubs in England and I knew this was the best championship in the world," said midfield powerhouse Cana.
"Everton know me very well. I have had interest from them in other years and might have come to England.
"We were talking, but Sunderland came in and I had a good feeling when I spoke to Steve Bruce.
Still would have loved him at the clubLike ain't heard that before
