But talks have now been stalled as the offer has been rejected. Sassuolo are yet to set a definitive price tag and this is causing problems to Sunderland in their move.
The Neroverdi are waiting for the newly promoted Premier League side to make a new approach, as they seem interested in a sale if the right offer is made.
Lauriente has starred in the Serie A in the past and has previously worked under Sunderland manager Regis le Bris and sporting director Florent Ghisolfi during his time at Lorient.

Report – Ajax & Udinese Join The Race For €7M Rated Inter Milan Striker
