Grayson Backing Vaughan Against Injuries

James Vaughan joined the terriers on loan back in the summer window and has impressed the Town faithful as well as his boss, Simon Grayson, who is now backing his striker to remain fit. Vaughan came back into the starting line-up on Saturday for the game against Birmingham City but was taken off in the 67th minute with an apparent injury.

However Grayson cleared things up after the game and backed his striker to remain fit whilst playing in the Blue & White stripes of Huddersfield Town;

"This isn't any recurrence of a knee injury or anything like that, it's a groin strain he's picked up and played through probably for the two previous games. Vaughany has not missed a day's training while he's been here."

"Players pick up niggles regardless of any injury record that they may have, so we want to get him back fit, we want him for the rest of the season because he is an asset to us."

Norwich City do not have a recall clause in Vaughan's loan contract and so the striker will remain with the terriers until the end of the season at least. However Grayson has reportedly stated that he is keen to sign Vaughan permanently from Norwich if he is given the chance to do so.
