Injuries have been a consistent theme throughout Chesterfield’s season and they have as many as nine players in the treatment room at the moment.

In case you have lost track, here’s a rundown of who is out and when they could be back...

Gavin Gunning

The skipper has not played since January 8 against Chelsea. He has missed the last nine games with a shin and calf injury. However, he is not thought to be far away from returning to action and he was seen being put through his paces before the Wrexham match.

He suffered a knee injury against Stockport County and is going to be out for two or three months. If he plays again this season it will be towards the end.

Injured his Achilles again and won’t play at all this season. He’s out of contract in the summer so his future is up in the air.

George Carline

Last season’s player of the year suffered a bad knee injury against Wrexham in October. He had hoped to be back around March but it now looks like he will not play again this campaign.

Jack Clarke

Out for the season following an operation on a ruptured hamstring.

Kabongo Tshimanga

His operation on his fractured leg and dislocated ankle was a success. The striker will be in a race against time to get back fit before the end of the season.

He has not played since October because of a health issue and that is still ongoing.

Curtis Weston

Not injured but he is suspended for the next two matches against Yeovil Town and Notts County.
