Crewe's Mat Mitchel-King will return to full training on Tuesday after recovering from a head injury sustained against Burton.

The 27-year-old defender was replaced by Matt Tootle two minutes before half-time after a clash of heads but boss Dario Gradi insisted it was just a precautionary measure. Gradi told the club's official website: "We don't take risks with head injuries. We are always careful and I didn't think twice about putting Matt (Tootle) on. "He (King) was feeling groggy after getting a knock on his head. The safety of our players is paramount and that was the case on Saturday. "Mat will be fine. I am sure he will be OK to train."
