Injury boost for Wrexham boss Parkinson as duo near return

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson is hoping to welcome back midfielder Ollie Rathbone and wing-back Danny Imray after the international break. Rathbone has missed the last two Championship matches with ankle ligament damage, while Imray was sidelined with a hamstring issue. Both players are expected to be available for Wrexham's upcoming match against Derby County on October 10.

Meanwhile, other injured players are making progress in their recoveries. George Thomason is recovering from a thigh injury, and defender Max Cleworth is working his way back from a hamstring issue. Winger Nathan Broadhead is also recovering from a thigh strain suffered in training.
