Yorke out

Sunderland midfielder Dwight Yorke is out of tomorrow’s Barclays Premier League trip to Fulham.

The 36-year-old damaged a knee in training yesterday and is likely to be out of action for a week.

He joins Dickson Etuhu (also knee) on the sidelines, although manager Roy Keane has no other new fitness concerns.

Provisional squad: Gordon, Fulop, Bardsley, Collins, McShane, Evans, Higginbotham, Harte, Whitehead, Reid, Leadbitter, Edwards, Miller, Richardson, O’Donovan, Jones, Waghorn, Murphy, Stokes, Chopra, Prica.
