Best news so FAR to the BLACK CATS fans as long forgotten ACE player sidelined for over 1yr due to terrible injury now make shocking return as Regis Le Bris confirm is one of the best already ahead of next season campaign.

Sunderland U21 coach Graeme Murty has expressed happiness over Jake Waters’ comeback from a lengthy injury.

The 18-year-old striker, a lifelong Sunderland supporter, made his first appearance in 15 months during the U21 team’s 2-1 victory against Hebburn Town on Thursday. Waters, who hadn’t played since April 2023, started the match and performed well before being substituted around the 60-minute mark.

Murty told The Echo that while Waters’ return is fantastic, the young player is understandably impatient to regain his pre-injury form. The coach emphasized the need for a measured approach to Waters’ recovery, estimating that it might take at least 12 weeks for the player to fully readjust.

“We need to be professional and modify his training regimen for his benefit,” Murty explained. “We’re prepared to be patient, even if he’s less so.”

In the match against Hebburn Town, Ben Middlemas scored for Sunderland, followed by an equalizer from the hosts before halftime. Trey Ogunsuyi secured the win with a second-half goal, though he later missed a penalty.
