Manager Roy Keane said, "I'm delighted Greg has decided to join us, and hopefully he will play a big part in what we hope to be a successful few years for the club."
And after passing today's medical to complete his move, Halford said, "It's great to be here. The set-up at Sunderland is phenomenal and I can't wait to get going. I've had a taste of the Premiership with Reading and I want more."
