Derby: Paul Warne is keeping fans on their toes. He mentioned that they’re close to signing a new player. The club is looking to finalize a deal for Lars Salvesen from Viking FK.

This striker is expected to join Pride Park soon, with the deal around £800,000. If all goes well, he’ll be the first signing of the January window. Warne knows they need a fresh face up front.

After their recent FA Cup loss to Leyton Orient, he didn’t confirm Salvesen’s name but hinted at the need for a new forward. He said, “We do need a striker.”

Warne also noted that some key players were missing. Dajaune Brown did well, scoring a goal, but the squad needs a boost. Salvesen scored 12 goals last season and fits the type of player Warne wants.

Derby isn’t stopping with just one signing. With Tawanda Chirewa back at Wolves, they have room for another loan. Plus, some players might leave, like Sonny Bradley, who’s already gone to Wycombe.
