Sunderland supporters are all in agreement after the club unveiled Joe Gelhardt to supporters earlier this afternoon. The Leeds United youngster has joined the Black Cats on a season-long loan after being on the fringes of the Whites' first-team so far this season.
Gelhardt is highly thought of at Elland Road and Tony Mowbray's side saw off a number of Championship sides to sign the forward. The 20-year-old is viewed as a long-term option for Leeds United up front, but after the arrival of Georginio Rutter, he's fallen further down the pecking order.
Red and white supporters are pleased to see the club acquire someone of Gelhardt's ability as the club looks to maintain their promotion push this season.
