The 32-year-old played alongside, and then under, Sunderland manager Gus Poyet during the first of the England striker's two spells at Tottenham. Poyet said: "His exceptional goal-scoring record speaks for itself." United States international Jozy Altidore, 25, moves back to the MLS with Toronto as part of the deal. Defoe could make his debut against Spurs at White Hart Lane on Saturday if international clearance is - as expected - received by 13.45 GMT. "It is a great club and I've always enjoyed coming up here and playing against Sunderland because of the stadium and the supporters," the striker said. "It is a great place to play and I'm really looking forward to it." Defoe, capped 55 times by England, is 14th on the list of all-time Premier League goalscorers, with 124 from his time with Spurs, West Ham and Portsmouth. He scored 11 times in 16 games in his first season with Toronto and had been training with Tottenham during the MLS close season. Sunderland currently 16th in the Premier League, with only Aston Villa having scored fewer than their 18 goals. They have won only three of their 21 league matches this season and collected just one point from their past four games. -- facebook Taiwan Spurs https://www.facebook.com/hotspuratptt --
