Marcos Alonso hopes to stay with Sunderland beyond the end of the season.
The Daily Mail says Alonso is keen on a permanent return to England after impressing during his loan spell.
The 23-year-old has been a dependable figure under Gus Poyet since joining from Fiorentina in December.
The Spaniard made just nine appearance for Fiorentina and despite the attraction of Serie A is hoping his performances for Sunderland will lead to a bid in the summer.
