Goalkeeper Christian Walton has returned to Brighton from Bury after a groin injury curtailed his loan spell.

The England under-21 international has been forced to pull out of the squad for matches against the United States and Norway this month.

Walton played six times for Bury but will now undergo rehabilitation with the Seagulls.

Albion boss Chris Hughton said: "Christian is back with us for his treatment on a groin problem, and we felt it was right to bring him back here so he can play some matches with our under-21s as part of his rehabilitation.
