Derby County’s quest to bring in a goalkeeper this summer continues after a recent update on Daniel Iversen.
Paul Warne has already emphasised the certain positions in which he is looking to improve this summer ahead of the 2024/25 Championship campaign, with midfielders undoubtedly taking priority.
Depth has been increased in the Ozoh-of-the-park for Derby County this summer with the arrivals of Ben Osborn and the loan signing of David Ozoh, both of which have arrived with Premier League experience.
Kenzo Goudmijn and Ebou Adams have also been brought in to bolster Warne’s midfield options.Another position that is in desperate need of reinforcements is goalkeeper, with Josh Vickers being the only first-team shot-stopper on the books at the club.
However, any search for a goalkeeper is set to continue as a result of the finances that will need to be involved in order to bring Leicester City goalkeeper Daniel Iversen to the club.

Derby County are reportedly ‘looking elsewhere’ for a goalkeeper this summer after Leicester City’s asking price for Danish goalkeeper Daniel Iversen was revealed.
Per Alan Nixon on Patreon, Leicester City want a ‘stunning £1.5 million’ for a player who ‘comes with a whacking £25,000-a-week contract’.
Derby County looked likely to strike a deal for the shot-stopper with Iversen being ‘keen to move’ away from Premier League side Leicester City, however the Rams are looking on to pastures new, as well as Sheffield United and ‘other Championship rivals’, who have backed out of a deal too.
Derby County must move quickly for alternative goalkeeper target
Although the lucrative finances surrounding a deal to bring Iversen to Pride Park will be a blow to Warne’s plans ahead of the new season, they still have the option of ensuring a deal can be completed for their alternative goalkeeper target, Jacob Widell Zetterstrom from Djurgårdens IF.
