Vito Mannone has agreed a new deal with Sunderland.
The Daily Mail says Mannone has agreed a two-year contract extension at the Stadium of Light.
The deal comes despite the arrival of Costel Pantilimon, the towering 6ft 8in Romanian who's been Joe Hart's No 2 at Manchester City.
Mannone dismissed claims this week that he had handed in a transfer request following the signing of Pantilimon.
