Sunderland keeper Pickford returns to Burton Albion

Sunderland goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has returned to loan club Burton Albion.

Pickford was asked to return to Wearside by his parent club late last week to provide cover for injury worry Keiren Westwood.

But he has now resumed his loan.

"Jordan wasn't actually officially recalled by Sunderland," said Burton boss Gary Rowett. "They just called him back to training because Keiren Westwood was injured.

"They needed him to train with the first-team last week and now he's back."
