Sunderlandââ¬â¢s Ghanaian striker Asamoah Gyan is doubtful for this weekend's clash with Fulham.
The Black Cats attacker is struggling with a toe injury.
The Ghana striker has been in good form since joining the club from French club Rennes.
Black Cats boss Steve Bruce will give Gyan until the last minute to prove their fitness ahead of the trip to Craven Cottage.
