Sunderland midfielder Carl Winchester could return for play-off final
Posted Saturday, May 21, 2022 by PA
Carl Winchester could be involved for Sunderland when they face Wycombe in the League One play-off final at Wembley.
Black Cats boss Alex Neil hinted that the midfielder is nearing a return from injury while Aiden McGeady is also in contention.
Leon Dajaku is also nearing a return having trained this week.
Defensive duo Niall Huggins and Jordan Willis are long-term absentees.
Wycombe manager Gareth Ainsworth almost has a fully-fit squad to choose from.
The Chairboys boss revealed in his pre-match press conference a couple of unnamed younger players have picked up knocks, but otherwise had everyone available.
The near two-week gap since Wycombe completed a 2-1 aggregate victory over MK Dons in the semi-finals has helped them get players back to fitness.
Forward Adebayo Akinfenwa could feature in what is set to be the 40-year-old’s final game before retirement.
