Upon returning to Crewe, he made his Crewe debut on 9 November 2021 in an EFL Trophy group game against Wolves Under-21s at Gresty Road,[6] but after his second appearance, against Doncaster Rovers on 1 December 2021 in the same competition, suffered an ankle injury.[7] Following relegation to League Two, Woodthorpe was released by Crewe at the end of the 2021–22 season.[8]
