Sunderland's Leo Hjelde: Running Thursday

Rotowire ·

Hjelde (knee) was back on the field for training Thursday, according to his club.

Analysis:

Hjelde is ramping up his work in training this week as Sunderland starts their tour in the US, with the defender shown running in training. This will hopefully lead to his inclusion in an upcoming friendly, leaving him fit to start the new season. He spent all of last season on loan, so it is yet to be seen if he will hold a spot in the Premier League, hoping to help his chances by entering the season fit.
