Huddersfield Town brothers Nathan and Tom Clarke are on the road to recovery from their respective knee injuries.

Both players have missed the start of this season with knee problems, but they received encouraging news after visiting a specialist on Tuesday.

Tom is targeting a Christmas comeback, while elder brother Nathan could return in the next four weeks.

"The specialist was pleased with their progress and that certainly pleased me," said Terriers boss Lee Clark on the club's official website.

"Both of them have been working exceptionally hard with our own medical staff - it's a long hard road at times - and getting this kind of news from the experts will provide them both with a big lift.

"The pair of them are Huddersfield Town through and through. They're popular characters around the place and their attitude is always spot-on."
