Jermain Defoe is speaking for the first time since his move to Sunderland AFC at a press conference today.

It was announced last week that the former England striker will join Sunderland from Toronto FC, in a deal that saw Jozy Altidore move in the opposite direction, from Sunderland to Toronto.

Defoe made his debut for the Black Cats against Tottenham Hotspurs at the weekend. He travelled to London with his new teammates to face his old club, Tottenham, at White Hart Lane.
