Sunderland played two low-profile friendlies behind-closed-doors against non-league opposition in Gateshead and Blyth Spartans at the weekend, and they will now jet out this week to Portugal for their warm weather training camp. They will return to Wearside following the game against Roma, and their pre-season will continue when they head north to face ex-Sunderland boss Jack Ross' Dundee United at Tannadice Park on Saturday, July 16.
