New Rams
#3
Derby County defenders Curtis Davies and Richard Stearman have agreed a new one-year contracts.

Davies, 37, was an ever-present as Derby fought unsuccessfully to avoid relegation from the Championship last season after having 21 points deducted.

He was named player of the season, having joined the Rams from Hull City in 2017.

Stearman, 34, made 15 appearances for the Rams in 2021-22 following his release by Huddersfield Town.

His former clubs also include Leicester City, Wolves, Fulham and Sheffield United.

The pair's new deals follow the signing of Conor Hourihane, David McGoldrick and James Chester earlier this week in the wake of the takeover of the club by David Clowes.

"I can't see myself in another team's shirt," Davies told the Derby website.

"Everything this club wants to be moving forward, I want to be part of. We are starting from scratch again with new ownership now."

He added: "It's important that we realise we have the quality in the changing room, we have the characters and experience in terms of winning promotions in the changing room, but it's putting it together on the pitch and making sure we do the right things week in and week out to get us back up."


Report
Derby will be playing in the third tier of English football this season for the first time since 1985-86.

"I'm realistic at where I am in my career. I know I might not be the first name on the teamsheet but I think my strengths lie not just in the matchday squad," said Stearman.

"There is the culture of the club, the standards that need to be met every day and I feel as though they play into my strengths."

Derby have signed defender Haydon Roberts from Premier League Brighton on a season-long loan.

The 20-year-old has progressed through the youth ranks with the Seagulls and has played for the first team in the Carabao Cup.

He has also spent time on loan at Rochdale, making 26 appearances for the club during the 2020-21 campaign.

Roberts becomes the seventh player to join the Rams since new owner David Clowes took over at the club.
Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?
