Anderson broke into Steve Bruce’s first-team squad last season – and made two senior appearances – after impressing in training. The midfielder has been tipped for a loan move this season, but the Daily Mail report that Anderson has been sidelined with a hip complaint.
Anderson, it’s claimed, must rest for four weeks. This would rule the 18-year-old out of the club’s pre-season programme, which kicks off on Sunday with friendlies against York City and Harrogate Town.
Meanwhile, goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, on holiday after playing for Slovakia at Euro 2020, could miss the start of the season with a hip injury.
