In 2012 he signed for Sunderland on a £10m deal, and was handed the Barclays Player of the Month award in January 2014 after scoring a hat-trick in an away win against Fulham.
He has also represented England at under-19 and under-21 levels, and at senior level 12 times. His last England appearance was in a friendly win over Italy in August 2012.
His arrest came shortly before he was due to travel with Sunderland to Hull for Tuesday night's Premier League fixture.
Sunderland said it would make no further comment on the arrest.
