​Derby in last minute deal for Norwich midfielder Johnson

Championship Derby have signed sign midfielder Bradley Johnson from Norwich.

A statement on the club's Twitter feed, posted shortly after the 1800 BST cut-off point, revealed the 28-year-old's arrival on a permanent, four-year contract.

Sky Sports say the fee for the player, who was Norwich's player of the year last season, is in the region of £6m.

Rams boss Paul Clement said: "Being able to bring Bradley to Derby represents a major coup for the football club.

"His experience will prove invaluable to us. He knows how to get out of this division and is a leader."
