da betway： Sunderland could be handed a huge boost as the season draws to close, with Duncan Watmore eyeing a return before the end of the campaign.
Sunderland fans were of course gutted after Watmore’s most recent injury, but the 25 year-old could hand Jack Ross a surprise boost if the chips fall in the right places.
Watmore was initially ruled out for eight to twelve weeks after a horror tackle from Wycombe’s Marcus Bean, having only just returned from an ACL injury before that.
Now, his father has spoken out about his son’s state of mind and future.

What’s the word?
“What really annoyed him about it was he’d just had his high,” said Ian, Watmore’s father, as reported by The Sunderland Echo.
“You can imagine scoring that goal in front of the fans, the equaliser in the 94th minute is the sort of high that you dream of when you’re doing those endless hours of rehab.
“He’s had two years of that and then he finally comes out and does it and then it’s two minutes later and he didn’t really get the chance to enjoy the moment.
“I think probably in the back of his head, he hopes he doesn’t have to play again this season because it means automatic promotion, but if there was a need to go to Wembley for the play-off final, he might just be fit for that.”
A Wembley return after all?
The Black Cats currently sit fourth in League One, five points behind Barnsley with two games in hand on the second-placed Tykes.
While Ross’ side still have their fate in their own hands, it will take a near-flawless run of results from here until the end of the season to secure an automatic jump back into the Championship.
A quest through the play-offs is the next best thing, and of course winning in the first round would guarantee another trip to Wembley for the Wearsiders.
After missing this month’s Checkatrade Trophy final, what a story it would be for Watmore to return to the side to aid their promotion push at Wembley.
