Sunderland have appointed Dick Advocaat as their new manager until the end of the season.
The former Netherlands coach takes over a day after the sacking of Gus Poyet with the Black Cats one point above the Premier League relegation zone.
“We have one aim only now – to climb the table – and everyone is fully focused on the task ahead of us,” said Sunderland chairman Ellis Short.
Advocaat, 67, said: “I can’t wait to get started.”
