Injured Duo Expected to Bolster Sunderland Squad for West Brom Clash

Sunderland head coach Régis Le Bris has delivered a significant boost to Black Cats supporters, confirming that midfielder Enzo Le Fée is on track to return to the matchday squad for the upcoming fixture against West Bromwich Albion.

Le Fée, who has been sidelined since Sunderland’s narrow 1-0 defeat to Hull City in February, has successfully reintegrated into training sessions this week.

His potential inclusion in the squad that travels to The Hawthorns represents a welcome reinforcement for Le Bris’ options in the middle of the park.

The French tactician didn’t stop at Le Fée’s positive update, also indicating that defender Leo Hjelde “should” similarly be available for selection against the Baggies.

This double boost comes at a crucial time as Sunderland continue their Championship campaign.

When questioned about the broader fitness situation within his squad, Le Bris confirmed there were no additional injury concerns following their most recent match.

This means the Wearsiders’ squad stability remains intact, with only previously known absentees unavailable for selection.

Le Fée’s return will be particularly welcomed by Sunderland supporters, given the creative midfielder’s importance to the team’s playing style since his arrival.

His technical ability and vision have been sorely missed during his extended absence.

While Le Bris stopped short of guaranteeing starting positions for either returning player, their mere availability provides valuable depth as Sunderland prepare for the always challenging trip to West Brom.

The match represents another important fixture as the Black Cats continue their push in the Championship standings.
