Derby County injury latest as Rams sweat over duo while four to miss Norwich City clash

The Rams have some injury problems to contend with for their clash against Norwich City on Saturday (3pm) as they look to avoid an eighth successive league defeat.

Ryan Nyambe and David Ozoh had to be replaced in the defeat to Sheffield United last weekend while there are a number of players already ruled out for the trip to Carrow Road.

Head coach Paul Warne is today expected to issue an update on the injury situation for the game against the Canaries, who are currently eighth in the table.

Derby will have new signings Sondre Langas and Harrison Armstrong available to face Norwich after they both completed moves to Pride Park in the last week. Here is a rundown of all the players currently battling to prove their fitness…

Ryan Nyambe

The right-back had to be replaced at half-time of the defeat to Sheffield United due to a problem with his hip. Warne was expected to give an update today.

David Ozoh

The on-loan Crystal Palace midfielder had to come off in the second half against Sheffield United because his calf tightened up. Whether he will be available for the weekend should become clear today.

Corey Blackett-Taylor

The winger looks certain to be out of the clash this weekend after damaging his hamstring in the defeat to Cardiff. The winger had been patiently biding his time for a start, but had to be replaced in the second half. Paul Warne has since confirmed he will be out for a “period of time.”

Callum Elder

The left-back is facing a race against time to prove his fitness to face Norwich after coming off in the second half of the defeat to Cardiff. He subsequently missed the defeat to Sheffield United and the former Hull City full-back is in a battle to make the squad on Saturday.

Kane Wilson

The right-back picked up a hamstring injury in the defeat at home to Sunderland and he missed the defeats against Cardiff and Sheffield United. Will be missing.

Dajaune Brown

The striker added to the list of woes after damaging his hamstring after coming on as a second-half substitute against Sunderland. He was sent for a scan and unfortunately required surgery on the muscle. Likely to be out for the rest of the season.

Nat Phillips

The on-loan Liverpool defender had to come off in the FA Cup defeat to Leyton Orient due to a problem with his calf. He has missed the last four games but it was hoped he would return to training this week.

Curtis Nelson

The centre-back is out for the season after damaging his ACL in what is a huge blow to Derby given he was one of their most reliable performers.
