SULLEY MUNTARI is set to perform a U-turn and join Sunderland - despite saying he would only sign for a London club.
The former Portsmouth midfielder was linked with a move to Sunderland this month but insisted he was not keen on a switch to the North East.
But sources in Italy have revealed that the Inter Milan star has given up on a move to the capital and will fly to England today to discuss a possible transfer to the Black Cats.
If those talks are successful, Muntari could sign in time to face champions Chelsea next Tuesday.
