Reyna misses Sunderland trip

Claudio Reyna has been left out of the Sunderland party for their trip to Spain after picking up a groin injury.

The Black Cats complete their preparations for the new season with games against Seville on Thursday night and Algeciras on Saturday.

Reyna should be fit for the Premiership opener against Blackburn on August 17 according to club officials.

Manager Peter Reid will also be without summer signing Thomas Myhre in Spain.

The Norwegian goalkeeper, who made his debut in the 2-1 defeat by KAA Gent in Belgium last weekend, has suffered a recurrence of his groin injury and will not be risked.
