Sunderland have expressed interest in Malaga wing-back Vitorino Antunes.
Antunes shone last season for Malaga, filling the void left by Nacho Monreal's move to Arsenal.
The Portuguese's form has attracted enquiries from Sunderland, says Opinión de Málaga.
Antunes, formerly of AS Roma, can play at left-back and on the wing.
