The winger played against Coventry last term, while with the Black Cats, and scored in the away fixture in the Championship.

“I remember we lost that game 2-1 but I scored a last-minute goal,” he recalled. “They are a young team, Coventry and a very exciting team. I don’t know which team they’ve had this season but I remember, last season, they had a very young team and the striker Viktor Gyokeres, who went to Sporting. They’re a very strong team, who play football and attack and just attack.

“But we know there are not many games left so now, the most important thing is, as a team, every player needs to fight and we need to win every game. So that is the most important thing now, we hope to maybe win the FA Cup. That is the most important thing right now.”
