Burton striker Billy Kee feels fully fit and is ready to play his first game in over five months after recovering from groin surgery.

The 21-year-old has been sidelined since February with a groin problem and was forced to go under the knife.

Kee has only made three appearances in the calendar year due to the persistent problem but he is now looking to regain his place in the Burton team.

"It's been about six months since I last played football properly and I'm just gagging to be back," he told the club's official website.

"I feel fit but I need game time. The lads have had three or four games and I need to get some under my belt if I'm going to be in contention for a starting place."
