Sunderland have signed Everton defender Joe Anderson for an undisclosed fee on a three-and-a-half-year deal.

The 21-year-old never featured for the Toffees' first team but made seven appearances for the under-21s team in the EFL Trophy.

He could make his debut for the Black Cats in Saturday's trip to Millwall.
