Although he is not likely to start the match due to the impressiveness of Jordan Pickford since filling in for the injured Italian, Vito Mannone could possibly feature on the bench for the lads in red and white this weekend.

Many Black Cats fans don’t know that the Italian shot stopper was actually a key part in Hull’s team when he was loaned there from Arsenal in the 2010/11 season, then again in the 2011/12 campaign.

This was due to Mannone finding himself as third choice ‘keeper at Arsenal.

The Italian went on to make 33 appearances for the Tigers over his two loan spells.
