Promoted Premier League side AFC Sunderland has reached an agreement in principle with Champions League winners PSG to sign France international fullback Nordi Mukiele (27), according to RMC Sport’s Fabrice Hawkins. The former RB Leipzig defender has been allowed to travel to Wearside to undergo his medical with Regis Le Bris’ Black Cats.
The versatile Mukiele joined PSG from Leipzig three years ago in a €12m deal. The Stade Lavallois Academy product was expected to leave PSG this summer considering he’s not highly regarded by Luis Enrique. The Spaniard sanctioned Mukiele’s season-long loan to Bayer Leverkusen last season. Despite PSG’s over-reliance on right-back Achraf Hakimi, and the Moroccan international’s expected absence for the AFCON, Mukiele was deemed surplus to requirements in the French capital as Warren Zaïre-Emery and João Neves can fill at right-back.
