Northern Ireland international Conor Washington has joined Derby County ahead of the English league One campaign.

The 37 time international joins the Rams on a two year deal from Rotherham United.

“I’m delighted. It’s been rumbling on for a little while but I’m delighted to finally get it over the line and make a fresh start,” Washington said, speaking to the club’s official website.

“I understand the expectation that the coaching staff have got on me as a player and that will be really important for me but I’ve also got Josh Vickers in the changing room, who I played with at Rotherham, and that will make settling in a little easier.”

The Rams have also announced the signing of Sonny Bradley from Luton Town.
