ROY Keane's Sunderland are lined up for a pre-season friendly against Kendal Town.

The Premier League club have agreed to send a side to play Lee Ashcroft's side on Wednesday, August 13.

Town's commercial manager Paul Maclennan, who is a former Sunderland player, has been the prime mover in arranging the eye-catching money-spinning fixture.

He said: "I've been working hard on trying to fix this game up and now it's going to happen.

Sunderland have said they will send a mixture of reserve and first-team players.

The reserve team won the Premier League North Reserves' title last season, so they have so talented lads in the side, including an Under-20 French international.

"Hopefully we will know who will be in the squad that is coming to flag it up to fans, but it looks a tremendous evening for all concerned."
