Martin O'Neill says that he is still waiting to discover the full extent of Wes Brown's knee injury.

Sunderland manager Martin O'Neill has said that he is staying positive as he waits for news on Wes Brown's knee injury.

The 32-year-old damaged his knee in the Black Cats' friendly against FC Gronigen last weekend.

O'Neill is waiting for the result of a series of scans being conducted on Thursday.

The Mackems boss said: "He will be assessed today. He is doing some scans and I'm hoping that the news is going to be okay. But his knee is really swollen."

Brown faces a race against time to be fit for Sunderland's Premier League opener against Arsenal on August 18.
