Sunderland have announced the signing of midfielder Steven Pienaar on a deal until the end of the 2016-17 campaign.
The 34-year-old moves to the Stadium of Light after being released by Everton when his contract expired at the end of last season.
Pienaar made just four Premier League appearances last season after spending much of the campaign sidelined with a thigh problem.
The former South Africa international is David Moyes' fifth signing of the transfer window, following the arrivals of Papy Djilobodji, Adnan Januzaj, Paddy McNair and Donald Love.

It was Moyes who first brought Pienaar to the Premier League, when he signed the midfielder from Borussia Dortmund on loan in 2007.
He went on to play for the Toffees 229 times over two spells, having spent a year at Tottenham Hotspur.
The Moyes era at Sunderland got off to a losing start, as the Black Cats were defeated 2-1 by Pep Guardiola's Manchester City, but the manager has made it clear he was encouraged by the performance. > ..... - Goal
