The transfer will be hugely controversial as Lens became a fan favourite on loan at Fenerbahce last season.
The 29-year-old was one of the players of the season scoring five times and providing 17 assists.
In fact statistically he was the second best player according in the Super Lig according to Whoscored.
Lens joined Sunderland from Dynamo Kiev for £13million in 2015 but only managed 25 appearances in two seasons with the Black Cats.
The experienced winger will join Pepe and Alvaro Negredo who also joined this summer.
