In order to have players sign before the Championship season, Warne has already started searching the market. One
such player is Ben Osborn, who had a physical on Thursday at Pride Park.
Jerry Yates, a striker for Swansea City who scored nine goals in the Championship last year, is apparently set to join
Derby County on loan.
But their work is far from done as they try to strengthen their midfield options, which suffered with the departure of
Conor Hourihane and Korey Smith earlier this month.
For the upcoming season, they’re probably going to focus on a Tunisian international with EFL experience.
Derby County target Ipswich Town midfielder Idris El Mizouni
Idris El Mizouni has apparently attracted Derby County’s attention after a productive loan stint at League One’s
Leyton Orient, according to TWTD.
Oxford United and the Rams are vying for the midfield player, who is reputedly valued at approximately £350,000.
Derby County is apparently planning to reevaluate its options after giving El Mizouni some thought before the
2023–2024 season.
The Paris-born athlete, who was awarded the captain’s armband 11 times, was a vital member of Leyton Orient’s
midfield. He has also played on loan for Grimsby Town and Cambridge United in the past.
Would Derby County target Idris El Mizouni make an impact in the Championship
El Mizouni only made 26 appearances for Ipswich Town over the course of five years as he battled to establish
himself in the starting lineup.
But Brisbane Road has been the primary location of his development, as he has spent two seasons on loan playing 89
games for Leyton Orient.
With the departure of the seasoned Smith and Hourihane, Derby County may need the leadership displayed by the
23-year-old Tunisian international, who was been named captain on several occasions.
The Rams currently have very few alternatives in the midfield, with Tyrese Fornah being one of the few established
central midfielders.
Prioritizing players in this position before the new season begins is necessary, and El Mizouni could
be ideal for Derby’s revamped midfield heading into the 2024–2025 Championship season.
El Mizouni will hope to advance his career by landing a permanent move after receiving multiple loan moves while at
Portman Road. Both sides benefit greatly from this arrangement.
