Sunderland striker David Healy has moved to Ipswich Town on loan until the end of the season.
The 30-year-old Northern Ireland international has made just six appearances for the Black Cats this season, all of them as a substitute.
He has not started a single league game for the club since his £1.5m move from Fulham 18 months ago.
Last month, the Sunderland striker issued a 'come and get me' plea to potential buyers as he looks for a way out of the club.
Healy is now set to link up with his former manager Roy Keane at Portman Road, who are battling against relegation to English football's third tier.
It is the second time Northern Ireland's record goalscorer has signed for Keane after the former Manchester United midfielder took him to Wearside from Fulham in his time as Sunderland boss.
Healy will be joined by Sunderland forward Daryl Murphy who has also agreed to move to the Coca-Cola Championship side on loan until the end of the season.
The 26-year-old, who has nine Republic of Ireland caps, played 27 times for Sunderland last year but has also slipped down the pecking order at the Stadium of Light.
Healy's lack of club football has had an unwelcome effect on the international front, where he lost his place in the starting line-up for the November friendly against Serbia.
It was the first time he had been dropped for a home game at Windsor Park since he made his debut in February 2000.
Healy has scored 35 goals for Northern Ireland.
