CLOUGH: THREE MUST GO

DERBY boss Nigel Clough admits there will be no new arrivals at Pride Park until a trio of players are shifted from the wage bill.

Jimmy O’Connor, Nathan Tyson and James Bailey are all available for transfer and Clough claims their departures would free up funds.

“We are still trying to get the three lads out and fixed up – Jimmy O’Connor, Nathan Tyson and James Bailey. If they could go, it would certainly make things a bit easier,” Clough said.

“We have still got our eye on one or two but if we keep the squad intact, we will keep a couple of loans up our sleeve as and when we need them.”
