Sunderland AFC transfer news RECAP: Aiden McGeady injury latest plus updates on Jake Vokins and Tom Flanagan

The Black Cats are sweating on the fitness of Aiden McGeady who missed the Hull match with a foot injury.

It’s hoped the 35-year-old will play a part in the run-in, though, with just four games left to play in the regular League One season.

McGeady has been influential since his return to the Sunderland side, scoring four goals and registering an impressive 13 assists across all competitions.

Following the draw at Hull, Johnson insisted his squad can win promotion this term, yet it’s now looking increasingly likely that will have to be through the play-offs.

Sunderland have fallen seven points behind second-place Peterborough, who also have a game in hand on the Wearsiders.

We’ll have the latest news, analysis, transfer talk and more throughout the day.
