The agent of Napoli midfielder Jonathan de Guzman admits a move to Sunderland is likely.

De Guzman was set to join Marseille this week.

“We are evaluating the best solutions for all concerned along with Napoli," agent Fabio Parisi told Radio Crc.

“The deal was close to being done with Marseille, but that was before the change of Coach with Michel replacing Bielsa.

“Sunderland? It could be a dry loan and I think we'll probably find a solution. I believe De Guzman's future will be decided by tomorrow."
