Joe Hart will join Torino despite interest from Sunderland because he wants to play abroad, according to Sky sources.
Hart is due at Torino's training ground at 2pm on Tuesday ahead of a season-long loan move.
Sunderland - who have lost injured first-choice goalkeeper Vito Mannone
for three months - were prepared to pay a large slice of his wages but
Manchester City have agreed to Hart's preferred option.
Hart, 29, lost his place as Manchester City's first choice 'keeper at
the start of the season with new boss Pep Guardiola preferring Willy
Caballero.
The arrival of Claudio Bravo from Barcelona last week makes the England man third choice.
Hart's agent Jonathan Barnett was quoted on Monday by www.tuttosport.com as
saying: "Yes, Joe Hart will play with Torino. It's done. The player
said yes to the club and also Manchester City have given the green
light. It is all true. Tomorrow [Tuesday] Hart will have a medical in
Turin."
