The 28-year-old’s contract expires at the end of the season and the Black Cats are keen to acquire his services on a free transfer. But they could face competition from a host of Premier League rivals, including Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, who have also been linked with the 5 foot 10 centre-mid.
Meanwhile, Le10Sport claim Real Madrid have made Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero a priority transfer target for the summer window. The Argentine is widely regarded as one of the top strikers in world football, netting 124 times in 188 appearances for the Etihad outfit.
Los Blancos look set for a huge summer overhaul, amid rumours they could sell as many as 10 first team players during the coming transfer window. But the 27-year-old is believed to have recently pledged his allegiance to the Citizens and is reportedly on the verge of signing a contract extension until 2020.
