It would represent a major boost for Sunderland if a deal could be concluded. The new Championship season starts in three weeks.

Sunderland want to keep the core of last season's squad together and build on it.

Sunderland fans will hope a deal can be struck.

Sunderland are in Portugal on their pre-season training camp, they face Rangers Saturday night – and the Echo will have full coverage - and Roma next Wednesday.
