However, new manager Howard Wilkinson has promised to play to the Black Cats strikers strengths in a bid to up his goals for tally.
Wilkinson told the club's website: "Having Kevin back on the training ground and in contention for Saturday is a boost for me and for the squad as a whole.

"Kevin's record is there for all to see and what we have to do now is try to make sure that he gets enough opportunities to be as good a goalscorer as he ever was."
