    In any case, they indicate Diarra preferred to say ‘yes’ to the project presented by Sunderland, once again confirming the major ambitions of the Lads’ board for the upcoming Premier League season.

    Sky Sports adds to this information that Diarra arrives at Sunderland as the natural replacement for Jobe Bellingham (19), who signed with Borussia Dortmund for a fee around €33m.

    Therefore, the Black Cats will add one of the best young midfielders in the world to their squad. Now we await an official announcement from the club.
