Derby is now keen on “incredible” over 100 career target strikers

Derby County is now keen to sign more than 100 professional goals this summer, a move that John Eustace personally pushed forward, the report said.

Derby’s summer transfer plan takes shape

It’s always difficult to avoid a championship relegation in the first season of the second-tier derby, but Eustace has almost done the job, and Eustace will seek to sign a contract that will help help his team push the table up next season.

The Rams have set out to raid some title rivals next summer, and he bids for Hull City right back Cody Drameh, even though they don’t receive the response they hoped, and the proposal was eliminated.

Drameh, however, wasn’t the only defender for Eustace’s gaze, but Ricardo Santos, who was in the centre-back, also made an inquiry, who had a free transfer after leaving Bolton Rangers.

Despite maintaining a decent defensive record throughout the 2024-25 campaign, the champion outfits clearly aspire to strengthen their choices behind, but given their league position, there were only 56 goals in the entire campaign.

But there is also a desire to strengthen their offensive choices, and Derbyshire Live reports are now keen on Andi Weimann’s move, who had previously spent three years at Pride Park from 2015 to 2018.

Eustace personally pushes the Rams to bring Weimann back and will transfer for free if the forward fails to agree to a new contract for an extended stay with current employer Blackburn Rovers.

“Incredible” Weiman might be seduced by the Derby move

The 33-year-old apparently has a strong relationship with Eustas, who also signed Blackburn last summer and was highly praised by his manager last season, who said: “When you have a player of that quality, how old is he (or) at what age.

“Everyone can see his impact on the court and the court. We’re lucky that he decided to sign here.”

Former Bristol City boss Nigel Pearson, who is also an admirer of Austrians, describes his desires and work ethics as “incredible”, has extensive experience at the championship level, which can be very useful for the derby.

Blackburn’s forward has spent most of his career in Division II, scoring 74 in the game, and now has a career goal of more than 100 after scoring seven goals last semester.

So Weiman could be a brilliant signing for Derby, hoping his existing relationship with Eustace will help convince attackers to move to Pride Park.
