FC Basel star picks Hoffenheim over Sunderland
Sunderland have suffered a transfer snub, with Valentin Stocker set to join Hoffenheim from FC Basel.
Sunderland were keen on the left-sided attacker and were ready to press ahead with a summer move for him.
But Stocker, 23, is all set for a move to Hoffenheim.
The Switzerland international, who has been at Basel since 2007, wants to seek a new challenge and Hoffenheim believe they will tie up a £3.5m deal for him.
