Chesterfield defender Kyle Critchell has been given the all-clear from an eye specialist to resume training next week after being hit in the face by the ball in last weekend's game at Millwall.

Kyle Critchell in action

The 20 year old visited a London hospital after Saturday's game, following a temporary loss of vision, and now has seen a second eye specialist in Chesterfield who has confirmed that although there is no lasting eye damage, a few more days rest is required.

Chesterfield assistant manager Lee Richardson said: "We are pleased there is no lasting damage but have been advised to rest Kyle for a few days so he will not be involved for this Saturday's home game against Port Vale."
