Modibo Diakite leaves Sunderland

Modibo Diakite leaves Sunderland by mutual consent having failed to make an impression in his two years at the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland have confirmed that defender Modibo Diakite has left the club by mutual consent.

The 27-year-old, who made the move to the Stadium of Light from Lazio in 2013, has failed to impress during his short stint in the North-East and is now on the search for a new side.

It was reported earlier this week that as many as 10 clubs were interested in signing the centre-back, with Fiorentina said to be his preferred destination following a successful loan spell at the Serie A outfit in the second half of last season.

Diakite has also been linked with Sampdoria, Palermo and Inter Milan in recent weeks.
