8 of Derby County’s best ever academy graduates – Where are they now?

Wayne Rooney’s side look almost certain to go down to League One with the team currently sat in the relegation zone.

The Rams are 23rd in the Championship table, some nine points adrift of safety with only five games remaining in the campaign.
