Oldham shock Everton in FA Cup Sunderland boost survival hopes Man United beats Sunderland

London - South Africa international midfielder Quinton Fortune could be enlisted by his former Manchester United teammate Roy Keane to save Sunderland from the Premier League drop.

Sunderland, who were knocked out of the FA Cup at the hands of fellow strugglers Wigan on Saturday, have given the 30-year-old a trial.

Fortune made over 100 appearances for the Old Trafford side from 1999-2006 after moving from Atletico Madrid.

"Quinton has been training with us for the last month or two. We will make a decision on him next week," said Sunderland coach Keane.

"It's a case of us both helping each other out. He's been looking to get his match fitness back after a serious operation and he's been good to have around the place."

Fortune moved from United to Bolton on a free transfer in June 2006 but played just seven games.
