Sunderland are considering Roberto Di Matteo as their new manager, but the former Chelsea boss is in no mood to make a quick decision, according to Sky Italia.
The Black Cats sacked Di Canio on Sunday evening amid talk of a player revolt and a poor start to the season for the North East club.
And while Sunderland have installed Kevin Ball as temporary boss, the search for a permanent successor to Di Canio is ongoing.
Di Matteo, who led Chelsea to the Champions League and FA Cup in the 2011/12 campaign, is a serious contender and has support at the Stadium of Light.

The 43-year-old has been linked with several jobs since his departure from Stamford Bridge.
