""He will need probably one or two weeks to be at his best after a good rehab programme and after that it depends on AFCON," assessed manager Regis Le Bris. "We need to build his fitness level and after that, he will be ready. The decision is with the national team. If they want to select the player, they can. It's not our decision.""
Nick Woltemade's headed own goal delivered Sunderland a Premier League derby win over Newcastle, their first victory against their rivals since October 2015. Reinildo Mandava returned from a groin issue for Sunderland, while Dennis Cirkin was not involved despite progressing in his recovery. Chemsdine Talbi and Brian Brobbey replaced Lutsharel Geertruida and Wilson Isidor, with Luke O'Nien serving the first match of a three-game suspension. Habib Diarra was due to return to full training the following week after a groin injury but could be selected by Senegal for AFCON. Sunderland began the day 10th and unbeaten at home this season. Joelinton was a doubt for Newcastle and started on the bench, with Lewis Miley in the starting lineup.
