Midfielder moves to IFK Gothenburg

Tobias Hysen has expressed his delight after securing a move to IFK Gothenburg from Sunderland. The Swedish midfielder spent just one season with The Black Cats after admitting to feeling pangs of homesickness. He has joined IFK for an undisclosed fee and is relishing the opportunity to play for his home-town club. "It feels truly fantastic." Hysen told the club's official website. "It's wonderful to come home and play for IFK Gothenburg. "It's nice that everything is done and I can focus on playing."

Intention to win

Meanwhile, Roy Keane has warned his players not to be complacent in Tuesday's Carling Cup second round tie at Luton Town. Sunderland won 5-0 at Kenilworth Road on the final day of last season, but two divisions now separate the clubs and Keane is wary of an upset. Keane said: "We will be going to Luton with the intention of winning the game and we won't be expecting to walk it. "If anyone takes that approach Luton will give them a shock, so we need to be just as committed to doing well as we will be when we play Manchester United on Saturday. "I do believe it is a competition we would like to do well in and we won't be experimenting too much. I am not really in a position to rotate the squad."
