Sunderland star could return against Everton Bertrand Traore could make his return to the Sunderland squad against Everton on Sunday. Traore has been out for the last seven games after re-injuring his knee but boss Regis Le Bris says he is in line for a return this weekend. “At the minute, we have a full group, so I had to make a decision last week,” Le Bris said.
“His trajectory was probably a bit different if you compare with Jocelin and Nilson, who were back as well. It was a re-injury for Bertrand, so probably I needed more time to be comfortable with his selection. “I had this conversation with him yesterday, and I was clear and honest.
This week, it was more consistent, I think. It’s not easy to manage a re-injury and it was a new injury for him as well. “In a career, sometimes you have an ankle injury and then a re-injury, so you know exactly what is the timeline and so on.
For him, with his knee, it was totally new. Because it was a re-injury, I think it was important to be a bit more cautious and this week was much, much better. ”
