Wembley heroes, rising Wales star and Man City talents who can solve Rams issue

Of course the foundations are there, with players like Lewis Travis, Matt Clarke, Carlton Morris, Derry Murkin and Bobby Clark a very fine start a good Championship XI.

However, the loss of loan players Ben Brereton-Diaz, David Ozoh, Sammie Szmodics and particularly Jaydon Banel leave John Eustace light.

The wing positions stand out as needing reinforcement, with Brereton-Diaz and Banel significant contributors towards the end of the season, especially the latter after Patrick Agyemang’s gut-wrenching injury.

That has left the Rams linked with several wide players, most recently and most emphatically Brighton’s Tommy Watson, who had a stop-start first season in the Premier League and who is expected to go out on loan this summer.

Knowing Rams’ expertise in the loan market and vacancy on the left flank, we’ve put together a list of five options, either permanent or temporary solutions – starting with Watson.
