'Bring Zlatan home!' - Sunderland fans' funny tongue-in-cheek reaction to Kyril Louis Dreyfus transfer appointment
and live on Freeview channel 276
Harvey joins the club from Blackburn Rovers where he was the Championship side’s head of club talent identification and player analysis and fills the void left by former recruitment chief Tony Coton, who left the Academy of Light last summer.
His appointment is the latest in a string of changes made by Kyril Louis-Dreyfus since his arrival on Wearside, with Sunderland’s footballing structure having been almost entirely rebuilt.
