Released Sunderland star finally lands new club as short-term deal signed with best-supported side in League Two.
Former Sunderland captain Corry Evans has ended his period as a free agent after penning a short-term deal with Bradford City
Corry Evans has finally found a new club after signing a short-term deal with League Two side Bradford City. It was announced just under five months ago that the ex-Black Cats captain would leave the Stadium of Light at the end of his contract.
Along with Bradley Dack, Evans was one of the big names to leave Sunderland at the end of last season after injuries limited the pair’s involvment for the club. Evans made 67 appearances for Sunderland after joining from Blackburn Rovers in 2021 and played a part as the Black Cats were promoted back into the Championship via the League One play-offs.
The Northern Ireland international was a key part of the Sunderland side in their first campaign back in the Championship until he sustained an ACL injury in January 2023. He had played 24 times in the Championship in the 2022-23 campaign but was sidelined for 15 months, only returning for the final three fixtures of last season as he came off the bench in matches against Millwall, Watford and Sheffield Wednesday.
