Hume loving the challenge of switching positions

FAST becoming a utility man, Sunderland's Trai Hume reflected on his switch to left-back and reckons he’s “comfortable enough” in the position.

The Northern Ireland international performed well against Wolves in a vital 2-0 win given the fixtures the club are facing in the next few weeks.

Hume says he's relishing the challenge of adapting to new positions because of absentees. With Reinildo Mandava suspended, Hume was shifted across to left-back a role he also filled on several occasions last season as head coach Régis Le Bris opted to keep Nordi Mukiele at right-back, with Omar Alderete and Dan Ballard in central defence.
