The reporter claims the newly promoted side are in talks with the 2023–24 Bundesliga champions over a €10 million (£8.6 million) deal and are prepared to offer the 32-year-old Swiss international a three-year contract.
Sunderland were one of last season’s surprise packages, earning promotion to the Premier League through the Championship play-offs.
