Derby County given ‘green light’ as they line up second striker transfer
Derby County are keen on a move for USA international striker Patrick Agyemang as they look to beef up their attack.
With Carlton Morris’ move from Luton expected to be finalised this week, Derby are now being tipped to switch their attentions to Agyemang.
The Charlotte FC forward has impressed on the international stage, earning his first call-up to the national team in January.
He has scored eight goals and has registered two assists for Charlotte and has five goals in nine games for the international team.
The 6ft 4in striker is regarded as hot property across the Atlantic and is currently with Mauricio Pochettino’s squad for the Gold Cup where Agyemang again showed his prowess in front of goal as he scored the winner in a group game against Haiti.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano says the player has given the green light to the move as Derby looks to bolster its attack, which is a major priority this summer.
Derby scored 48 goals in the Championship last season, nearly half of which came through set-pieces.
