Craddock made his Boro debut away at Fulham in 2006

Middlesbrough have recalled striker Tom Craddock from his loan-spell with near-neighbours Hartlepool United.

The 21-year-old arrived at Victoria Park on a month-long deal but failed to score in four appearances for the League One club.

Craddock made his Boro debut on the final day of the 2005-06 season against Fulham but struggled to establish a place in the side.

His only career goal came while on-loan at Wrexham in November 2006.
