Sunderland don’t have a game this weekend due to international fixtures – providing more time for their injured players to recover.
The Black Cats thrashed Southampton 5-0 last time out, and are now preparing for a trip to QPR on Saturday, September 16.
Tony Mowbray’s side will then travel to Blackburn three days later, before a home game against Cardiff.
Here’s the latest Sunderland injury news as we head into the international break:
9. Adam Richardson
