According to a report by journalist Alan Nixon on Patreon, Derby County might enter the competition to sign Viktor Johansson, the goalkeeper from Rotherham United.
Derby County has secured automatic promotion from League One, propelling them back into the Championship. Despite facing challenges like administration and relegation in recent years, the club has adhered to a financial plan set by the EFL, facilitating their return to the second tier.
As they strive to establish themselves once again in the Championship, Derby County, led by Paul Warne, faces a daunting task. While they boast talented players like Nathaniel Mendez-Laing and Eiran Cashin, additional reinforcements are required for the upcoming season.
A recent report by Alan Nixon on Patreon suggests that Derby County could enter the fray to acquire Rotherham United goalkeeper Viktor Johansson. The Swedish goalkeeper is poised to depart from the relegated Millers this summer, with rumors swirling about a potential release clause in his contract valued at £900,000. While Stoke City and Sheffield United have already been linked with Johansson, Derby County’s promotion puts them in contention for his signature.
