When the striker was out injured he remained at Norwich which led to Chesterfield boss John Sheridan saying he was “getting impatient” and “irratated” at not knowing when he would be coming back to the Spireites.

After Spyrou’s time with the Spireites came to an end, Sheridan explained: “I think it was just a case of things have not really worked out with the injuries he has picked up.

"He has not really figured too much and I do not think he has caught up after his injuries getting his fitness back.”
