Derby County defender Ryan Nyambe has signed a new deal with the promoted Championship club.

The 26-year-old former Blackburn Rovers and Wigan Athletic player joined the Rams as a free agent last September, and has now penned a three-year deal, tying him to Pride Park until 2027.

The Rams have so far made two summer signings since Paul Warne led them back to the Championship in May.

They kick off their return to the second tier with a trip to Nyambe's old club Blackburn on Friday, 9 August.
