[edit]

Pre-season

[edit]

1 July saw the start of pre-season for the 2024–25 campaign, with the players returning to training after the summer break. As 30 June had seen the final day of a number of players contracts, 1 July also saw the official departure of Dwight Gayle, Conor Hourihane, Scott Loach, Korey Smith, Martyn Waghorn, and Joe Wildsmith from the first team as had been announced via the release of the club's retained list six-weeks previously.[1]

Louie Sibley joined Oxford United following his rejection of a new contract.[2][3] Conversely, Corey Blackett-Taylor saw his loan deal from Charlton Athletic become a permanent deal,[4] and Ben Osborn joined on a free from Sheffield United.[5] The third and fourth signings of the summer followed the next day, with Kayden Jackson arriving on a free transfer following his release by Ipswich Town[6] and Jerry Yates coming in on a season-long loan from Swansea City.[7]

After this flurry, the next signing came a week later, with Dutch midfielder Kenzo Goudmijn joining from AZ Alkmaar;[8] a week after that Gambian midfielder Ebou Adams, a popular loanee in the promotion campaign the previous season, signed on a permanent deal from Cardiff City.[9] The midfield was further strengethed with the signing of Crystal Palace's David Ozoh.[10]

August

[edit]

Derby's first Championship game in two years came on Friday 9 August with a trip to Ewood Park to play Blackburn Rovers. The match saw the full debuts of Kenzo Goudmijn, David Ozoh, Ben Osborn, and Kayden Jackson but ended in a 4–2 defeat despite the game being level at 1–1 with 20 minutes remaining. Paul Warne put the late collapse down to Blackburn's substitutes saying 'They changed it and brought on cheat codes all over the place. We looked a little bit leggy and it's my fault because I didn't make the subs quick enough.'[11] Four days later, Derby earned their first win of the campaign with a 2–1 home victory over League Two Chesterfield in the EFL Cup 1st round, with Jackson scoring the winner with his first goal for the club on his home debut. Derby's first week back in the second tier ended with the announcement that the club has completed its protracted pursuit of Djurgårdens IF Sweden international goalkeeper Jacob Widell Zetterström for an undisclosed fee rumoured to be around £1.4m.[12] A surprise outgoing was midfielder Tyrese Fornah who dropped two divisions to join League Two Salford City.[13] Warne said of the move 'I want people that want to be here. He was frustrated he wasn't getting enough game time that his ability deserved. I was disappointed. I didn't want him to go. He goes with my blessing and I wish him all the best.'[14]

Derby's first championship home game of the season came against Middlesbrough, with the Rams gaining their first league win of the new season as they ran out out 1–0 victors thanks to Jackson's 14th-minute goal, his second goal in consecutive games, with Warne believing that the team 'stepped up a level' and praising the efforts of the players.[15] Derby followed up on this victory with a 2–1 defeat away at Watford despite taking a 2nd-minute lead through Ebou Adams first goal of the season.

As Warne continued in his attempts to strengthen the squad, the club signed Wolves winger Tawanda Chirewa on a season-long loan on 26 August.[16] Chirewa went straight into the side for the EFL Cup 2nd round tie away to League Two Barrow, with Derby exiting the competition on penalties following a 0–0 draw; this was Derby's third consecutive cup exit at the hands of a fourth tier side, following defeats to Crewe Alexandra in the FA Cup 1st round and Bradford City in the EFL Trophy round of 16 the previous campaign.

With the transfer window closing on 30 August, Derby concluded their transfer business for the summer with the season long loan signings of Liverpool centre-back Nat Phillips and Ipswich Town winger Marcus Harness. Neither player signed in time for inclusion in the following day's fixture at home to Bristol City. Despite this, Derby ran out comfortable 3–0 winners, their eight consecutive league home win and their biggest win in the second tier since a 4–0 victory at Birmingham City in December 2020. Goudmijn and Ozoh both scored their first goals for the club, either side of a goal from Jackson's third goal in as many games at Pride Park. Warne described it as 'the best Derby performance I’ve seen since I’ve been here'.[17]
