The Premier League club are nearing an agreement with Marseille for the Brazilian winger.
Sunderland are close to reaching an agreement with Olympique Marseille for Igor Paixão.
According to Matteo Moretto, the proposed transfer is worth €30 million plus a further €5 million in potential bonuses.
Negotiations between the two clubs are now at an advanced stage, with only the final details reportedly remaining before an agreement can be completed.
The move would take the Brazilian winger to the Premier League and represent a potential €35 million investment for Sunderland.
Roma were briefly linked to the winger earlier this summer, but another attacker eludes the Giallorossi.
