Sunderland winger Adam Johnson returns to training 
Sunderland winger Adam Johnson has returned to training with the Black Cats. The midfielder was suspended by the club following his arrest earlier this month on suspicion of sexual activity with an under-aged girl. Johnson's bail was this week extended until April 23, prompting Sunderland to review the suspension, and he will now be allowed to train pending the outcome of the police investigation.
A statement read: "The club has discussed the current position in detail with both the Professional Footballers' Association and Adam’s representatives.
"In line with those discussions we recognise that the player is entitled to re-commence his duties with the club while the legal process continues. He will therefore return to training. "The club’s own investigation cannot continue until the conclusion of the legal process. Sunderland AFC will make no further comment on the matter due to the ongoing police investigation."
Durham Police later confirmed the investigation remains "very much live and ongoing" and reiterated its warning to social media users about the dangers of identifying alleged victims of sexual offences.
In a statement, they said: "Sunderland AFC informed us this morning of their decision, which of course is a matter entirely for the club. The police investigation remains very much live and ongoing and a man remains on bail while enquiries continue.
"We would once again urge those posting on social media to be aware of the effects their comments can have.
We accept rumour and speculation may be inevitable, but many of the comments have been distressing to the complainant, her family and people connected with the investigation."
