Sheffield United today clinched the loan signing of Sunderland defender Nyron Nosworthy just before the transfer deadline.

The 29-year-old, who signed a new contract with the Black Cats earlier this season, has joined the Blades until the end of the current campaign.

Nosworthy has made 13 appearances for Sunderland this season and 125 in total since joining from Gillingham in June 2005.
