The young winger was pictured getting off a private jet at Newcastle airport yesterday morning, with Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri uploading the image on social media.

Tavolieri claims the Club Brugge winger was due to complete his medical with the Black Cats before signing a contract with Regis Le Bris' side.

Sunderland have agreed a deal worth a reported £19.9m, according to Fabrizio Romano, who claims the deal is now sealed after his medical.

Romano tweeted: "Sunderland and Club Brugge have exchanged all documents for Chemsdine Talbi deal. EUR23m package agreed last week and deal now sealed after medical done."
