Alderete will link up with Sunderland later in preseason and will not travel with the squad to the United States, the club announced.
Analysis:Alderete's later return follows his run to the latter stages of the World Cup with Paraguay, during which he had been forced off with muscle discomfort in a round of 16 loss to France after 58 minutes. His delayed return means he will miss Sunderland's preseason tour before rejoining the squad. Alderete is expected to begin his individual buildup before reintegrating into full training upon his return.
