Alex Pritchard and Nathan Broadhead are nearing a return to action ahead of Sunderland’s Sky Bet League One fixture against Gillingham.
Neither player has featured since the 0-0 draw at Charlton on March 5, a game which saw on-loan forward Broadhead make his only appearance since late December.
However, both men have returned to training quicker than expected, even if Saturday’s game may come too soon.
Defender Danny Batth is also close to getting back in the first team after completing 90 minutes for the Under-23s against Burnley last week.
