Sunderland's Romaine Mundle reveals surgery has been a success

Sunderland winger Romaine Mundle has revealed he has successfully undergone surgery as he prepares for the start of the Premier League season. A day after reports emerged that the 22-year-old had suffered an unspecified injury during the club's pre-season training camp in Portugal, he posted a photograph of himself recovering in a hospital bed on his official Instagram account. The image was accompanied by a post which read: 'Devastated to be here writing this message and words can't fully describe the emotions attached to this setback. 'Sometimes it's hard to find the positives in situations like these, but without a doubt I'll be back better physically. 'Surgery was a success and the road to recovery begins now. Although it has been a difficult period for me over the last few days, this is only a minor setback and I will be back better than before.' It remains to be seen how long Mundle, who has been linked with a summer move away from Wearside in recent days with Ligue 1 Monaco and Eredivisie PSV Eindhoven linked with moves for the pacy midfielder, will be out of action. However, his misfortune will come as blow to head coach Regis Le Bris, whose side was in friendly action against Spanish outfit Sevilla on Saturday evening at the Estadio Algarve in Faro just four weeks before they renew acquaintances with the English top flight when West Ham visit the Stadium of Light.

'Dream' to help Sunderland to play-off win

Romaine Mundle hopes to live out a lifelong dream at Wembley on Saturday and is aiming to take Sunderland "back where they belong".The 22-year-old winger endured an injury-hit first full campaign at the Stadium of Light but came off the bench in extra time to help inspire the Black Cats to a dramatic Championship play-off semi-final win over Coventry last Tuesday, sealed by Dan Ballard's last-gasp Tottenham youngster Mundle appeared in the first 15 league games of the season but, after sustaining a hamstring injury in a draw at Coventry in November, made just seven further missed the final six games of the regular season and the first leg of the play-off semi-final after another hamstring problem suffered at West Brom in early April."I've worked hard in my time off the pitch, focusing on my rehab, but it's credit to the team in allowing me to be in that position to come back and play a part," Mundle told BBC Radio Newcastle."Tuesday was an unbelievable night for everyone at this club, the team, the staff and obviously the fans. "It's one of the greatest nights of my life. It was fantastic, but you come in the next day and the focus is on the next game." Sheffield United, who finished third in the table, now stand in the way of Sunderland ending an eight-year exile from the Premier League - half of which were spent in League admitted to feeling the pressure on the game, but added: "A lot of people deal with pressure differently. I think it's good if you feel a bit of pressure, it's good nerves. You can use it to fuel you. It shows you care."Hopefully we can just get this club back to where it belongs."Mundle grew up 18 miles from Wembley but has never played under the arch. His most recent experience there was watching from the stands as Tottenham lost a Champions League tie to a Lionel Messi-inspired Barcelona in said: "I'll have a lot of people watching, in the stands or on TV, it'll be a special moment for me."I've not played there before but whether you are brought up in London or not, for a lot of people their dream is to play at Wembley and mine could possibly come true on Saturday."It would mean everything to me to win at Wembley, especially with what's gone on this season with the injuries, but mainly just for the club."The club deserves to be back in the Premier League, the fans deserve it. The fans and the club are tight-knit, it's almost like a family club. I just hope we can repay them." Sunderland boss Regis Le Bris can only pick 11 players to start the match, but Mundle insisted that the promotion push has been a whole squad effort, epitomised by defender Chris Mepham who started 37 games in the regular season but has found himself on the bench with the return of fit-again Ballard for the play-offs."Chris is an unbelievable human," Mundle said. "He knows football more than anyone else in this changing room, he's one of the senior players so he knows how to deal with the disappointment. "Everyone is happy because everyone wants one thing and that's Premier League for this club."I don't think anyone is fussed who gets us there as long as we all get there together."
