Derby midfielder George Thorne has received the all-clear to resume full training following a serious knee injury.

Thorne damaged his anterior cruciate ligament in July during the Rams' pre-season friendly against Zenit St Petersburg in Austria.

The prognosis was that he would be sidelined for anything between six to nine months after undergoing surgery.

The 22-year-old saw a specialist on Tuesday and was given the green light to join in training with the rest of his Derby team-mates.

Thorne made a big impact while on loan with the Rams last season and over the summer made a permanent move to the east midlands club from West Brom.
