Le Parisien has revealed that Sunderland is edging closer to securing a deal for US Sassuolo’s Armand Laurienté. The report suggests that the transfer could be completed swiftly, with negotiations between the two clubs reaching a critical stage.
The 26-year-old winger, who impressed with 19 goals and six assists last season, has been considering his options carefully as other clubs show interest in his services. However, it appears that Sunderland has taken the lead in the race to sign him.
There is speculation that a deal between the Black Cats and Sassuolo could be finalized within the next few hours, with both parties close to reaching an agreement. It remains unclear whether Laurienté will join Sunderland on loan or in a permanent transfer, and there is no confirmation yet on whether personal terms have been agreed.
If the move goes through, Laurienté will have the chance to reunite with Régis Le Bris, who played a key role in his successful season at Sassuolo. Sunderland fans can look forward to seeing the talented winger in action as they prepare for life in the Premier League.
