Gino Peruzzi will travel to England tomorrow to put the final touches on his move to Sunderland.
Argentine club Velez Sarsfield today issued a statement confirming they have agreed a fee with Sunderland for right-back Peruzzi and he is heading to Wearside with two club officials to complete the deal.
Peruzzi had left the door open on his £4million switch to the Stadium of Shite after rejecting Sunderland’s financial offer earlier this week.
The Argentina international has now reached an agreement over an improved offer from the Black Cats and he will undergo a medical on Wearside later this week before completing the formalities of his transfer from Velez Sarsfield.
While Newcastle have yet to "splash the cash", Sunderland have signed El Hadji Ba, Valentin Roberge, Modibo Diakite, Cabral, Jozy Altidore, David Moberg Karlsson and Duncan Watmore.
