The agent of Emanuele Giaccherini has again declared the player's commitment to Sunderland.
The former Juventus star has been linked with Napoli ahead of the January market, but Furio Valcareggi insists such a deal is a non-starter.
He told TMW: "He's having a great time at Sunderland, our intention is to remain there. In ten days he will be ready, we left Juve to do four years in England, and he will.
"The market in January? I do not see big shots, those who have the good players will keep them."
Giaccherini is in the final stretch of his recovery from an ankle injury.
