Bertrand Traore Injury: Returns with injury

Traore has returned from international duty with an injury and is questionable moving forward, according to manager Regis Le Bris, per Phil Smith of the Sunderland Echo. "With Bertrand, we will see. Bertrand has come back with an injury that we will have to assess. It is an injury issue he has come back with, but we don't really know any more than that yet."

Traore is now nursing an injury following AFCON, leaving the midfielder questionable upon his return to the club. This is major news for the club, as he is a regular starter when fit and will now have to wait longer to return. He will likely be set for some testing in the next few days as he returns to his club, hopefully not extending his spell from the club even longer.
