Shocking News Derby country manager was confirmed death account to…..

Derby County have returned to pre-season with a very different squad to the one that won promotion in April. However, with over a month and a half left in the transfer window, there is still plenty of time for more movement.

The Rams have already let go of seven of their promotion heroes, with Louie Sibley the most recent to leave following his move to Oxford United at the end of his contract.

Derby have also brought in a number of replacements, with Kayden Jackson and Ben Osborn joining on permanent deals earlier this summer, while Jerry Yates has moved to Pride Park on loan from Swansea City.

Yet, with more incomings likely in the weeks ahead, those further down the pecking order will only struggle further for game time.

With pre-season ramping up, and Derby’s team starting to take shape, FLW looks at two players that may be shown the exit door, both permanently and temporarily.

Tyrese Fornah

Since swapping the red side of the East Midlands for the black-and-white last summer, Tyrese Fornah, 24, has struggled to become a regular in Paul Warne’s team.

The Sierre Leone international made just nine starts from 19 league appearances in 2023/24, with injuries and a lack of form keeping him out of the side for the majority of the season. Fornah featured just four times after the turn of the year, and will need to perform in upcoming friendlies to stand a chance of seeing out this transfer window at Derby.

The arrival of Ebou Adams, 28, on loan from Cardiff City in January put further pain to Fornah’s situation, with Adams making the defensive midfield position his own with superb performances that helped take the Rams back to the Championship at just the second time of asking.

A loan for the 24-year-old could be the best-case scenario for both parties, especially if Derby secure the services of Adams once again. Fornah won just 47.1% of his tackles, compared to the 66% that the 28-year-old Adams won.

A move back to League One could be the perfect opportunity to show Warne that he has what it takes to become a key part of his team, and earn a new contract, with Fornah’s deal du wee to expire in 2025.
