The injury specialist responded to remarks made by Daniel Farke as well as the fact that on March 22, he scored a goal in his England under-21 debut after coming off the bench.
On March 17, Farke revealed that the 18-year-old had a problem with his ankle, albeit it appeared fine at first glance.
Brar, a sports scientist and physical therapy specialist, said the following about Grey in an exclusive interview with MOT Leeds News:
“With ankle issues, you can typically have a good idea of severity after two or three days.
“If it’s a serious enough knock and the ankle twisted, can involve ligament damage and bone bruising.
“The sign that he played and even scored on international duty will tell you that he’s at or close to a 100 per cent.
“Thus, there’s no ligament damage which is good news as that would’ve kept him out for weeks.“
Leeds United ace Gray avoids injury scare
Grey has developed into a vital member of the first squad, so it would have been a huge setback for Farke if he had been sidelined for weeks.
The Englishman, who was benched at the beginning of the season, has since emerged as a star in both midfield and right back.
He is among the primary reasons Leeds are leading the Championship at the end of March and is one of the favourites to go the distance.

Don Goodman names team that could derail Leeds’ automatic promotion bid before final day
Leeds United sent Coventry City warning by Don Goodman in new automatic promotion verdict
Don Goodman believes Coventry City could prove the sternest test for Leeds United in their quest to earn automatic promotion to the Premier League.
With eight games remaining, Daniel Farke’s team leads the Championship; nevertheless, Leicester City is tied for first place in points and has a game in hand in an intense promotion struggle.
With two games remaining, Southampton, who is in fourth place, is nine points behind Ipswich Town and is only one point behind them.
On the last day of the season, Southampton will be at Elland Road, but Goodman thinks that a trip to Coventry on April 6 may be just as important.
According to the remaining schedule, Southampton is scheduled to play them on the last day. Before they played that one, they would have preferred to have finalised the agreement, Goodman told MOT Leeds News.
“The other one that jumps out is Coventry City – they are a good team who are fighting hard to get into the top six.
“Then you have Hull City as well, and also a Middlesbrough side who are finding form. Can they go unbeaten? Of course they can.
“Would it surprise me if they lost one of those, or at least dropped points? No, it wouldn’t – that’s the nature of the Championship.”
Leeds United’s remaining Championship fixtures
With the exception of one, Leeds has won all 13 of their league games since the start of the season. This is an incredible run of play.
Farke’s guys should get a lot of credit for the way they have made things better; they were in serious trouble at the end of December and are now at the top of the list.
From this point forward, it is in their hands. They will immediately return to the Premier League if they play flawlessly the entire season.
Nevertheless, it will be very difficult to win all eight of these remaining games. Ipswich, Southampton, and Leicester will all lose additional points at the same moment.
It will all come down to who can maintain their composure the longest in the last few metres. Leeds has had incredible success at home this season, so the rest of the schedule—including Southampton—should be easy.
Even though United’s road games against Watford, Coventry, and Middlesbrough will present different kinds of challenges, at the conclusion of this campaign, there is no reason why they cannot still lead the division.
It’s only a matter of outperforming every other squad in the chasing group now that the hard work has been completed.
