Chris Kirchner reveals significant Derby County owner update

After a season of off-field turmoil and with Derby County going all the way to the brink and back, it looks as though the end might finally be in sight for the club in terms of their ownership struggles.

Chris Kirchner, who has emerged as a leading candidate to take over the club again, has confirmed via his official Twitter account that they will ‘officially be closing’ on Tuesday. It means that the Rams could finally have a new man at the helm by the end of the week.

I can say that signatures have already started today. We will be officially closing on Tuesday. It’s been a long journey, but we are now here. Thanks again to everyone involved and excited to begin the next chapter in a few days time!
