TAIWO KEANE TO LEARN FROM ROY

Taiwo - would like to learn from Keane.

Marseille defender Taye Taiwo has hinted he could be interested in a move to Sunderland.

The Black Cats have reportedly tabled a bid for the Nigerian full-back as Roy Keane looks to strengthen his defence.

Taiwo is regarded as one of the best young defenders playing in Europe and was named African Young Player of the Year two years ago.

The 23-year-old, who has an eye for goal from set-pieces, says he is unaware of any interest from Sunderland, but admitted he would be keen on linking up with Black Cats boss Keane.

"I am not aware of any bid from Sunderland," Taiwo told skysports.com.

"However the Premiership is the best league in the world, it can turn anyone's head, but you never know.

"Roy Keane? If you don't know Roy Keane, it means you don't have a clue about football.

"He was a top, top player, so if you have a chance to learn with him it is good, but I love Marseille.

"I am playing in a great team, although you never know."
