Sunderland have announced that further investigations have shown that Connor Wickham has not suffered any serious damage to his knee. The player has embarked on a rehabilitation programme as he recovers from the injury. Wickham left the field at Old Trafford after just 90 seconds on Saturday and underwent scans on Monday.
Why do they say not as serious as 1st thought, but not give us an estimate of how long he will be out? I presume a few weeks, and he will miss at least the Fulham game if not Wigan as well.
I fully expect him to be fit for the Wigan game personally but would rule him out of the Fulham game just yet.
