Albion boss Chris Hughton said, "Christian is back with us for his treatment on a groin problem, and we felt it was right to bring him back here so he can play some matches with our under-21s as part of his rehabilitation. The view then would be to loan him back out at some time in the autumn."Walton played four times for Albion's first team last season, after making his debut at Spurs in the League Cup, and has represented England at under-19 and under-20 levels.
