Clough plans a double deal

NIGEL CLOUGH has offered Jamie Ward and Paul Green new deals at Derby.

Rams boss Clough is keen to persuade winger Ward, 25, to sign a contract extension and kill off interest from Championship rivals Leicester.

Republic of Ireland international Green, 28, will be a free agent this summer and the midfielder has been offered a two-year deal.

Clough wants the pair to stay at Pride Park as he faces up to having to sell defender Jason Shackell to lower the wage bill.
