Derby closing in on Wisdom deal

Derby County are set to complete the loan signing of Andre Wisdom from Liverpool, the Metro understands.

The 20 year old has played less than ninety minutes of Premier League football this season, with his only other club appearance coming in the League Cup second round win over Notts County.

Reds manager Brendan Rodgers is keen for the defender, who can play at both right back and centre back, to gain more first team experience after falling down the pecking order at the Merseyside club following the arrival of Kolo Toure, Mamadou Sakho and Aly Cissokho.

The England U21 international will be hoping to add to his twenty-two first team appearances so far with Steve McClaren’s men, who rose to eighth in the Championship following their victory at Watford on Saturday afternoon.

Derby can now be backed at 10/1 to secure promotion back to the top flight for the first time in seven years.
