New signing Korey Smith has revealed how he rejected offers from the Championship in order to achieve "something special" at Derby County.

The former Bristol City midfielder became the club's 11th signing at the weekend as he signed a two-year deal on a free transfer after leaving Swansea.

Smith is set to feature in tomorrow night's friendly against Stevenage having been in the stands to watch their 1-0 win over Hertha Berlin at the weekend.

Having played 35 games in the Championship last season, Smith said he had offers to remain in the division, but said the determination of interim boss Liam Rosenior to sign him had been key. "It is brilliant to be here," he told Rams TV. "I’ve been speaking to the club for a while, pretty much as soon as my contract ended at Swansea.
