Sunderland manager Tony Mowbray admits he might have to give Amad some rest over the New Year period as fixtures continue to come thick and fast for the Championship club.
Amad started for the ninth game running on Boxing Day as the Black Cats grabbed a dramatic last-gasp win over Blackburn Rovers with Ross Stewart and Ellis Simms on target. But while it was those two strikers who scored the two goals, much post-match attention went to Amad following another eye-catching display.
Supporters have been wowed by the Ivorian throughout his time at the club. He has now played 17 games in the Championship with five goals and an assist.
