Returns to preseason training
Talbi has returned to preseason training at Sunderland's Academy of Light, following his summer commitments with Morocco at the World Cup, according to the club.
Analysis: Talbi scored four goals and added one assists across 28 appearances in his debut Premier League season, delivering decisive strikes against Chelsea, Liverpool and Newcastle to help Sunderland finish seventh. He became the youngest player in Morocco's history to register a World Cup assist during the dramatic round of 32 win over the Netherlands, and his return to the group now shifts focus to preseason preparations ahead of his second season in England.
Set to join squad in coming weeks
Talbi will not be part of Sunderland's traveling squad for the United States after advancing to the latter stages of the World Cup, the club announced.
Analysis: Talbi is instead expected to link up with his teammates later in the preseason schedule, missing out on friendlies against Liverpool, Leeds United and Wrexham. His delayed involvement reflects the club's approach of easing players back in following extended international tournaments. Talbi is expected to begin his individual training program before being fully reintegrated with the squad.
