Manager Roy Keane has released four players as Sunderland plan for life in the Premier League next season.

Among those to have been shown the door is Keane's former Republic of Ireland team-mate Kenny Cunningham.

Keane has also decided not to hand midfielder Tommy Miller and striker Kevin Smith contract renewals.

And the Black Cats will not be taking up an option on Frenchman William Mocquet.

The decision follows the return of loan signings Jonny Evans and Danny Simpson to Manchester United after the pair played a major role in the club's victorious Coca-Cola Championship campaign.

Meanwhile, Bolton have decided to release three players, Quinton Fortune, Henrik Pedersen and David Thompson.
